Students applying for the master’s program studies at Halmstad University will have the opportunity to apply for two different scholarships, one offered by Halmstad University and one offered by the Swedish Institute.

Halmstad University scholarships

Each year Halmstad University offers a number of scholarships to students from outside the EU/EEA and Switzerland with the requirement to pay tuition fees. Moreover, these scholarships may be granted to students within any field of study applying to our Master’s programs at Halmstad University.

Funding

The Halmstad University Scholarship covers 25% or 50% of the tuition fee and will be deducted from the tuition fee. However, the scholarship will not cover living costs and there are no grants for family members. The scholarship will initially be granted for one semester but will be automatically extended for the duration of the study program (2 or 4 semesters) provided that study results are satisfactory.
