Application instructions

Step 1. Create a user account

Create a user account at the webpage of University studies in Sweden. A user account can be created in advance, before making your actual application. If you already have a user account, please use the existing one and do not create a new one.

Step 2. Make a web-based application

Once you have created a user account you can apply through University Admissions in accordance with the application deadlines.

Click Add courses to add the programme of your interest. Then click To application to create an application in your name. In case you have selected more than one programme (you can apply to maximum two Erasmus Mundus Master’s programmes coordinated by KTH in this application round), the next step will be to rank the selected programmes in order of preference. Then mark the box for supporting documents and submit your application.

Note that the Erasmus Mundus Master’s programmes are exempted from charging an application fee.

Step 3. Print the cover sheet

After submitting the web-based application form you will be able to access the cover sheet which should be sent with your supporting documents. This cover sheet should be printed and signed. If you cannot do this straight away, you will be able to access and print it later on by logging on to your account . The cover sheet contains your personal data and is essential for matching the actual documents with your online application. Applicants with a Swedish civic registration number do not have access to a cover sheet. Instead they should write their civic registration number on any documentation they submit to University Studies in Sweden.

Step 4. Send your application documents

Your application should consist of the signed cover sheet along with all the required documents (correctly certified) regardless of prior applications. Documents required may vary from programme to programme, it is therefore important that you read the document descriptions carefully. Send your application package to the address given on the cover sheet:

University Studies in Sweden
FE 1
SE-833 83 Stroemsund
SWEDEN

Once your documents have been received by University Studies in Sweden you will be notified by email when your documents have been scanned and matched with your application.

Step 5. Fill out the complementary information form

As a final step we will ask you to fill out the online Erasmus Mundus Complementary Information form. You will receive an e-mail with a link to the online form when you have sent in your documents. Note that your application will not be complete without the complementary form, so look out for this message.

Throughout the process you will be able to follow your application and receive messages by logging on to your account.

Processing of personal data

Your personal data and information about your eligibility will be stored in the admissions database.
The National Admissions Office as well as the Swedish universities and university colleges will process your data for assessment, merit rating, selection and admission. How this register is to be run is governed by Swedish legislation (SFS 1993:1153; with alterations).
The Swedish Principle of Public Access to Information means that the public and the mass media are entitled to receive information about state and municipal activities. In accordance with this, information about your application and qualifications will be accessible to the public on request.
