Letter of admission

You will be notified by e-mail from antagning.se in mid-July for the autumn semester and mid-December for the spring semester. Please note that it is not possible for us to provide preliminary notifications.

Non-exchange students applying for single subject courses taught in English or courses and programmes taught in Swedish must actively confirm their acceptance of a place at the University. If you do not return your acceptance of courses by the date indicated, you will forfeit your place. Non-exchange students applying for master programmes taught in English do not have to confirm their place.

Selection

Courses as well as programmes have a limited number of places and selection is usually based on your grade point average from upper secondary school or the number of credit points from previous university studies, or both. Letters of recommendation are not considered. Exchange students are given priority to the courses.

Registration

Students will receive a letter of acceptance where preliminary registration for the courses they have been admitted to is indicated. However, for administrative reasons final registration for international students is made by the respective department at the start of each course. Course introduction is therefore mandatory. Information about the start of your course/s will be sent to your address in Karlstad by the administrator of your course/subject or by e-mail.
