Refunding of tuition fee
In certain cases, the tuition fee may be partially or fully refunded. Refunds are only issued to the same bank account from which the payment was originally made.
Refunding of tuition fee
Tuition fees can in some cases be partially or fully refunded. Students can apply for a tuition fee refund and post it to Karlstad University, SE-651 88 Karlstad, Sweden. Karlstad University only refunds the tuition fee to the same bank account from which we received the payment. For a swift process, we recommend that you send an application that should contain the following:
1) a signed letter describing the reasons for the refund application,
2) a copy of the voucher with the details of the bank account you made the payment from (account number, IBAN, SWIFT, the bank address),
3) a copy of any decision from the Swedish Migration Agency if applicable, 4) a copy of the passport.
Grounds that might make a student eligible for a tuition fee refund:
- The student was not granted a residence permit in Sweden,
- Due to compulsory military conscription in the student’s home country,
- The fee was paid too late during the term, so it was no longer possible to commence the intended programme/course,
- Other cases with extraordinary reasons (for example medical reasons, or the student’s status having been changed from obliged to pay tuition fee to non-obliged once payment has already been made).
Head of Office of Student Affairs makes decisions on refunds.
