Allocate KTH Scholarship (tuition fee waivers)
Higher education institutions in Sweden receive government funding in order to support international student recruitment. The scholarships awarded offer a tuition fee waiver for tuition fee paying students. Every year, around 30 scholarships are awarded based on academic excellence. KTH Scholarships are awarded according to the flow chart which can be found below. If you are involved in the scholarship process, this may be a helpful tool for you.
The KTH Scholarship process starts with the Admissions Officer who will match all of the eligible KTH Scholarship applicants to programme to which they have applied. The assessment of these applicants is then made according to the flow chart and the information that can be found in the webpages referenced below. The process is complete when all applicants are notified of the results and the scholarships nominees have registered and begin their studies at KTH.
