Residence permits for studies at university or college (including doctoral studies)
First-time applications from students at universities/colleges are processed by four of the Migration Board's permit units. Where your application will be processed depends on which university/college you have been accepted to.
This unit will process your application.
Please note: On a separate page we describe the rules for EU/EEA citizens and for those who are long-term residents in another EU-country.
A person who wishes to study at a university or college in Sweden for a period longer than three months must have a residence permit. The permit must be complete and entered into the passport before entry into Sweden.
A person who is in Sweden for a period of less than three months does not need a residence permit. However, citizens of certain countries must have a visa.
A residence permit for study purposes is subject to a time limit. Even if the period spent in the country has extended over several years you are normally not permitted to become a permanent resident in Sweden.
