Conditions and advantages of applying for a master's degree in studying in Sweden

1. Conditions and advantages of applying for a master's degree in Sweden

1. Education

The applicant has a bachelor's degree certificate. In actual application, not all Swedish schools require international students to provide degree certificates, and some of them are also willing to accept applications from senior students, such as the Royal Swedish Institute of Technology and chalmers university of technology, Sweden.

2. Major

The postgraduate major applied by international students must be the same as the undergraduate major. Changing majors is not allowed in Sweden. Almost all Swedish schools require international students to apply for this major. If international students have two degrees in university, they can apply for either major.

3. Language

International students need to have a high IELTS or TOEFL score. According to the regulations of Swedish schools, foreign students can only apply if their language scores reach the level of 55 in the old TOEFL and 6 in IELTS, but the number of overseas students studying in Sweden is increasing year by year. Therefore, in order to have greater confidence in applying, it is recommended that students' language scores reach the level of 6 in the old TOEFL and 6.5 in IELTS.

Most Swedish universities have no hard and fast rules on the Swedish language of applicants. Although Swedish is rarely explicitly stipulated in the school's admission standards, because many Swedish universities teach in Swedish or give lectures and seminars in Swedish, if foreign students know nothing about Swedish, it will have a certain impact on their study. Here, it is suggested that international students who are interested in going to Sweden take some Swedish courses and have a basic understanding of Swedish.

Advantages of studying abroad for master's degree

1. Good educational environment

Most Swedish universities teach in English, which is highly internationalized. Many universities offer postgraduate and undergraduate majors in English, which is one of the reasons for attracting international students from all over the world. Domestic students should not worry that the language is not good enough to adapt to the local environment. In addition, students can learn Swedish, and mastering one more foreign language is very advantageous for their future graduation and employment.

2. Visa application is easy

Sweden has low visa requirements and high success rate: as long as you get the admission notice from the universities of the four Nordic countries, the visa will be basically 1% passed.

3. Cost saving

Generally, domestic working families can afford to study in Sweden, because the average annual tuition fee is about RMB 1,, and the annual living expenses are about RMB 5,-6,. The pure expenses of a China student studying in Sweden for one year can be estimated to be about RMB 15,. The three-year undergraduate program and the one-to-two-year master program will not cause too much pressure on the family. Compared with hundreds of thousands of study abroad expenses in Britain and America, the study abroad expenses are relatively economical.

4. Rich scholarships

Sweden has introduced many new policies aimed at attracting more international students to study in Sweden. In recent two years, the Swedish government and universities have set up a number of scholarship programs to provide preferential policies for international students to reduce tuition fees or even provide monthly living allowances after reducing tuition fees. Most scholarships are for graduate students. At present, there are several kinds of scholarships that China students can apply for: bilateral scholarships, visiting scholarships, scholarships of the Swedish Committee for Foreign Exchange, EM scholarships of the European Union (Erasmus Mundus Program), and school scholarships set up by various Swedish universities.
