URGENT: Halmstad University Scholarship 2026 (Deadline: Feb 25!)
February 24, 2026 by Tuition Free Trek
If you have applied to study in Sweden for the Autumn 2026
intake, you must act immediately. Halmstad University has opened its
scholarship window, but it is closing in just hours!
The Halmstad University Scholarship is a merit-based
tuition fee waiver designed for high-performing international students from
outside the EU/EEA. Unlike the Swedish Institute scholarship which covers
everything, this is a Tuition Fee Waiver that significantly reduces the
cost of your Master's degree.
Scholarship Details & Financial Coverage
- Value:
The scholarship covers 25% or 50% of the tuition fee.
- How
it works: The amount is deducted directly from your tuition invoice.
- Duration:
Initially granted for one semester, but automatically extended for
the full duration of your Master's programme (2 or 4 semesters) provided
you pass your exams and maintain satisfactory study results (75% of
credits).
- Exclusions:
This scholarship does not cover living costs or family grants. You
must still prove you have the funds for your living expenses to the
Swedish Migration Agency.
