Sweden runs two rounds. The first is the one international applicants are directed to, because it leaves time for tuition payment, a residence permit and relocation: it opens 16 October 2026 and closes 15 January 2027, with the application fee and supporting documents due by 1 February. Master's results are published 1 April and bachelor's on 8 April. The second round opens 15 March 2027 and closes 15 April, but has limited availability of English-taught programmes.
