Application guide

You must meet both of the following types of entry requirements:

• General entry requirements: You need a Bachelor's degree from an internationally recognised university that is equivalent to a Swedish Kandidatexamen. You can also apply if you are in the final year of your Bachelor's studies. Requirements vary depending on the country where you studied. See the country instructions for more information.
• Programme-specific entry requirements: Most Master's programmes require previous studies in relevant subject areas. Visit the programme website and expand the information box under "Autumn 2027" to see the entry requirements.
  

Create an account and submit your application through University Admissions. You can apply to up to four Master's programmes and rank them in order of preference.

As you can only be admitted to one Master's programme, make sure your programmes are ranked in the correct order before 15 January. Read more about how to rank your selections.

To document your eligibility, you must submit all required documents to University Admissions before the document deadline 1 February.

Note: Uppsala University does not accept supporting documents submitted separately. All documents must be submitted through University Admissions.

How to submit your documents

Most applicants can upload documents directly to UniversityAdmissions.se.

If your degree is from one of the exceptional countries, your university must send your official transcript directly to University Admissions before the deadline.

You can upload additional documents until the document deadline.

Note: Documents received after the deadline, and documents that have not been requested, will not be considered.

If you are not a citizen of the European Union (EU), European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland, you must pay an application fee of SEK 900. If you are unsure whether you need to pay the fee, see who is required to pay fees.

The application fee is paid to University Admissions in Sweden and cannot be waived or paid to Uppsala University.

The fee must be received by the payment deadline. Allow enough time for international bank transfers and payment processing.

Important: Applications with late fee payments are considered late and are not eligible for scholarships.

Pay application fee

Admissions results are published on the date stated on the University Admissions website. Results cannot be released before this date.

You can view your admissions results in your account on University Admissions and download your official admissions letter (Notification of Selection Results). Uppsala University does not send separate admissions letters.

If you are offered a place

You do not need to accept your offer in the international admissions round. If you are conditionally admitted, all conditions must be met before the start of the semester.

If you no longer wish to keep your place

Please decline your offer so that the place can be offered to another applicant on the reserve list.
