What do I need to do to be granted a residence permit to study?
In order to be approved for a residence permit to study at a university/college in Sweden, you must prove that you are admitted to full-time studies, that you will be able to support yourself for the entire planned study period and that you have comprehensive health insurance if you plan to study for less than one year. You must also have a valid passport.
If you are obligated to pay tuition fees, you are not regarded as definitely admitted until the portion of the tuition fees that the university or university college takes in advance has been paid. The university or university college (institution) will notify the Migration Board when the payment has been made. More information about residence permit for studies at university/college.
