When applying to study at LiU, you can also apply for accommodation and a beginner’s course in Swedish.
Students from outside of the European Union must take courses of at least 30 ECTS per semester, which corresponds to full‑time study. Studying 30 ECTS per semester is one of the requirements for being granted a residence permit by the Swedish Migration Agency.

Exchange students cannot normally combine courses to obtain a final degree at LiU.
