Students with questions about study transfer to LiU

We do not make any exceptions to the admission procedure due to the situation in Ukraine. Students with the correct eligibility can apply for admission to semester one of our programmes and, after admission, apply for a transfer of credits from the Ukrainian study programme. The application of transfer of credits is then assessed by an expert. This can not be done in advance.
