About Sweden The name Sweden ring bell of different definitions to different people. The football lovers might get connected with Sweden easily because of the football legend Zlatan Ibrahimović. While students of history might reconnect Sweden to the medieval Scandinavia. I was in a discussion with a friend recently about Sweden, I was shocked with opinion of the person about the country. Well, that is to show the feel of different people about the Kingdom of Sweden. Brief Introduction 1. Geographic Location of Sweden Sweden is the largest of the Nordic countries located in the Northern Europe. Bounded in the north and west by Norway, east by Finland and south by Denmark. Climate wise, Sweden is a funny country when it comes to the climatic condition. Winter and summer temperature differences in Sweden are extreme, but generally the country enjoys a temperate climate, thanks to the Gulf Stream. 2. System of Government Power from the people, that is how Sweden is governed. In Sweden, Every citizen has the same right and has liberty to inspect how politicians and public agencies exercise power. Less I forget, Sweden is a constitutional monarchy and King Carl XVI Gustaf is Sweden's non-political head of state. The monarch has primarily ceremonial and representative duties while the Prime Minister oversee the official functions of the country. 3. Lifestyle Work-life balance really means something in Sweden. You’ll never be short of time or opportunity to enjoy your new home away from home with culture around the corner and freedom to roam a wilderness unlike anywhere else on earth. It’s no wonder Swedes are savvy outdoorsmen. When it comes to sustainability, Sweden is one of the leading countries in this course by action. Don't you think getting university admission in Sweden will be a worthwhile experience? 4. Education Swedish education is one of the best in the world with modern learning infrastructures and faculty members years of field experience. The Swedish university system accommodates international students and offer them equal opportunities with the local students. Don’t forget that at the core of Swedish education is sustainability. Little wonder all programs in Swedish universities are SDGs inclined. Incase you are considering applying to any university in Sweden, I will advice your motivation for studying in Sweden must be SGD related. With that introduction, you have some new perspective about the great Kingdom of Sweden. Can we now continue on our discussion about How To Get University Admission In Sweden As An International Student? Why Study In Sweden What will make you even think of studying in Sweden in the first place talk less of thinking on how to get university admission in Sweden? Schooling in Sweden is different from schooling in other countries due to Swedish universities culture of strong focus on group work. The Swedish education system concentrate more on student’s academic interests than pushing student to achieve a grade. Swedish university systems work to prepare you for a successful future; the job market values ambitious, innovative, and perceptive team players, so Swedish universities attempt to instill these qualities in their students. Below are few of the many reasons of schooling in Sweden. Quality and Unconventional Education You are captivated and now zealous about how to get university admission in Sweden? Read along please. Degree programs in Sweden offer students the opportunity to mix study and practical work, so that they have first-hand experience in their field after school. The system of education running in Sweden is student-centered. Relationships between students and teachers are relaxed and informal; as a student in Sweden, you will be expected to address your teachers by their first names. Who try this in Nigeria? Chuckles! Swedish universities lay emphasis on personal initiative and independent thinking. If you choose to study in Sweden, you will be expected and required to take an active role and contribute with your opinions and ideas in lectures, seminars, and group discussions. This will give you the opportunity to develop your individual strengths and cultivate you academic abilities.

A number of successful inventions have resulted from research at Swedish universities and companies, including the computer mouse, Bluetooth, the pacemaker, the ball bearing, the dialysis machine, and internet applications such as Spotify and Skype. These recent inventions are built on a long history of excellence in academia and research in Sweden. Sweden is the home of the Nobel prize and several highly acclaimed universities dating back to the 15th century. This innate creativity has established Sweden as a strong nation within design, fashion, and music. Language Though Sweden isn’t regarded as an English speaking country, but 89% of Swedish are bilingual with English language as the second option. Therefore as an international student from English-speaking countries you don’t need not worry about not being able to study and communicate with the locals. If your bachelor degree was taught in English language in country where English is the official language, you don't need to provide IELTS or TOEFL certification. A simple language proficiency letter from your university will do. Wonderful Outdoor Life See the cosmic wonder of the Northern lights or the endless summer days. Sweden’s geographic location creates a perfect environment for natural aesthetic extremes. Combined with Sweden’s “freedom to roam,” the general public’s right to access almost all public land for recreational purposes, it’s no wonder Swedes are savvy outdoorsmen.

Re: Swedish Admissions And Student Visa by mbachidi: 12:33am On Jan 14, 2022 |
You can apply for 2nd masters, It would be better you don’t use the masters certificate during the application, you would be asked questions regarding it at the embassy. Unless you feel you will be prepared to answer the numerous questions. I don’t think the masters will be of any advantage to scholarships Leleky: 1 Like |
Re: Swedish Admissions And Student Visa by Mobil567: 10:42am On Jan 14, 2022 |
This is not true. Universities like Lund, Gothenburg and some others prioritise applicants with masters degree for their university scholarship. I know this from some current and previous scholars. It’s only for SI, that it disqualifies you! Also, the embassy does not know which document you submitted for your admission application. You will only be questioned about it, if you mention it during your RP application or bring the certificate during an interview. mbachidi: |
