University of Borås Scholarship

University of Borås Scholarship

You get a reduction of at least 75% of your tuition fee for a master's programme at the University of Borås in Sweden. This is a fee waiver, not a cash payment: the university simply cuts your tuition bill by that share. It runs for the full length of your programme, so two semesters for a one-year master's and four for a two-year master's. If you are admitted to a two-year programme and pass 60 credits in your first year, the waiver rises by another 10 percentage points (at least 85%) for the second year. It does not cover living costs.

Who can apply

• Where you study: You are admitted to one of the eligible master's programmes at the University of Borås, for example in textile management, fashion marketing, informatics, information science or resource recovery.
• Level: You apply for a master's programme, not a bachelor's or an artistic programme.
• Nationality: You are from a country outside the EU, the EEA and Switzerland, so you have to pay tuition fees. If you are exempt from fees (for example EU citizens or holders of a permanent Swedish residence permit), you cannot get this scholarship.
• Start date: You start in the autumn semester. There are no scholarships for the spring semester.
• Grades: You have a strong academic record.
• Fit: Your background matches the university's priority teaching and research subjects.

How to apply

You apply through the form on the university's website. The application opens on 1 December for the following autumn semester. It closes on the same date as the supporting-documents deadline for the national master's admission round. Selection is based on your study record and how well your background fits the university's priority subjects. Results are published in March.
