Required documentation for all applicants with international merits
In order to complete your application, you must submit the following documents after submitting your online application for programme(s) at University Admissions. Please do not submit documents that are not listed here.
1. Certificates and diplomas
Certificates and diplomas from previous studies at an internationally recognised higher education institution (university or university college). If you are a student in your final bachelor year and do not have your degree yet, you need to supply a certificate of ongoing studies.
2. Transcripts
Transcripts of completed courses and grades for each term. If the content and focus of your courses are not listed on the transcript or not clearly conveyed in the course titles, please provide relevant course syllabuses issued by your university.
3. Supporting documents for proficiency in English
If English is not your first language, include proof of English language skills.
4. Supporting documents for specific entry requirements
Proof that you meet the specific entry requirements. This may include items such as syllabus. Some programmes, for instance MSc in Design, may require additional steps for special selection such as work samples or individual tasks. Check the web page of your chosen programme to find specific admission requirements.
5. Copy of passport
A copy of the page in your passport with your personal data and photograph, or another identification document where your citizenship is stated (not applicable when using a Swedish personal identity number).
Please note: If you are from an EU/EEA country or Switzerland, you are required to document your citizenship status in order to be considered exempt from paying application and tuition fees.

Official documentation
Please note that applications not supported by officially certified documents will not be processed.
If you submit documents via regular post, all copies of original documents must be certified as true copies of the original. This means that they must be stamped and signed by the issuing institution, or a notary public, or equivalent. If you submit documents that are not certified, your application will not be processed.
Any documents that you scan for upload to your account at University Admissions must be original documents. If the document is in colour, scan it in colour. Remember to include all pages of documents that contain any type of text/writing, even including back pages. Make sure that everything in the document is visible on the scan, especially embossed stamps.
Additional instructions on uploading documents can be found on University Admissions.
