Adam Said:

is it true that higher education in Sweden is free?

We Answered:

Used to be free but very hard to get into as the whole world wanted to take advantage of the Swedish generosity.

Starting with the 2011 academic year, it is no longer free to non-EU students but entry will become much easier.

Priscilla Said:

Is tuition free education in Sweden is available now?

We Answered:

There is no formal decision on application or tuition fees for universities or other national institutions of higher education in Sweden.

However, on 28 May 2009 the Government of Sweden ordered Högskoleverket (the Swedish National Agency for Higher Education) to make preparations for application and tuition fees, in cooperation with the Swedish institutions of higher education. The agency was also ordered to suggest suitable application fees.

The decision of 28 May gives particulars that are very likely to be found in the anticipated law. Application fees are to be introduced in the autumn of 2010. Tuition fees will have to be payed by students enrolling in the autumn of 2011 or later.

Citizens of the European Economic Area (European Union + Lichtenstein + Iceland + Norway) and Switzerland will not have to pay any application or tuition fees. Permanent residents of Sweden are also expemt from fees, as well as, on certain conditions, family members of EEA citizens, permanent residents of other EU states, holders of Swedish residence permits issued for other purposes than studies and students from foreign instutions of higher education coming to Swedish institutions on exchange programmes.

Joe Said:

What are the advantages and disadvantages of doing FREE education in SWEDEN? Which course is good there?

We Answered:

Before you decide on an MBA program explore the Internet for information on available programs. There is a lot of information available in free public service sites. Some sites are limited to specific countries, such as Germany, UK, or Australia. Some list a small number of select schools, while others may include more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. You can find the program that best fits you. You can search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc.), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc.), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by type of degree (MBA, MS, Ph.D). In some cases you can select your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs.

You can find data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees such as MBA/JD, and much more. Some sites have links to the schools' web sites, or provide email addresses to contact schools of your choice, and send them pre-applications. You can find lists of top schools ranked by various periodicals or ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. Generally you should stay away from any sites that require you to pay to get information or that promise to find scholarships for you or ensure acceptance into a program. Before you provide any personal information to a site, be sure to read their privacy policy and make sure they are not harvesting email addresses for sale.

What does it take for Americans to get a free education in Sweden?

We Answered:

First of all, you'd need to be accepted into a university in 2010. Sweden currently has no tuition even for foreign students, but this is set to change in the beginning of 2011. Students from outside the EU will be charged tuition unless they've started their studies before then. Fees aren't set yet, but the figures quoted are around $10,000 per year.

To be accepted at undergraduate level, you have to prove your Swedish fluency skills with a test called the TISUS. You also need to show that you've had at least a year of higher education after high school. There are Master's/PhD programs available in English that don't have the language requirements.

To get a study permit, you have to show you have the funds to support yourself (living costs) while in Sweden. The amount you have to show, before you can be issued a permit, is 73.000 SEK per 10 months (1 year of studying). This is currently about $10,000.

It is very hard to find a job in Sweden unless you are fluent in the language, and preferably already educated/experienced. Student type jobs have a lot of competition, and most people already speak at least English and Swedish so they have an advantage. You can't count on finding work to help with living costs while studying there.

Otherwise, if you go on a work or relationship permit, you are eligible to study without paying tuition after a couple of years. This is also the case if you have citizenship with an EU or Nordic country.

Norway has no plans to start charging tuition fees for foreigners. However, the cost of living here is even higher than in Sweden. You also still need to pass the language exam for undergraduate studies, which is (in my opinion) more difficult than the Swedish one due to a huge difference in dialects from city to city.
