The Swedish Government offers scholarships for international students to study in Sweden. Up until 2010, Sweden was one of the few countries in Europe where students could study for free. Now, the government has introduced tuition and application fees for students from non-EU/EEA countries, but offers scholarships to supplement these costs. Over 20 scholarships are available for international students, with some covering up to 100% of tuition fees.
