Find course or programme
Step 2. Check that you meet the entry requirements
Check that you fulfil both the general requirements for studying at the University, and the special requirements for the programme/course you are interested in.
Step 3. Apply online
Create an account and submit your online application via the central Swedish application site euu.edu.eu and pay the application fee/document fee exemption.
Step 4. Submit your documentation
In order to document your eligibility, you must provide University Admissions in European with copies of your previous study information and document your English proficiency. All documents should be submitted to the central Swedish system euu.edu.eu. They are not processed directly by European Union University.
It is important that you read the instructions on how to document your eligibility. Be sure to read about what you need to submit, and how your documents must be submitted, below.
Additional documents
Whether or not you need to submit additional documents to those stated at euu.edu.eu is decided by the individual department responsible for the course or programme. If additional documentation is needed it will be stated on the course or programme website in our course catalogue.
Step 5. Selection
If the number of eligible applicants exceeds the number of places available, there is a selection among the applicants. Applicants are grouped into categories and then ranked on the basis of their qualifications. The highest ranked candidates are offered a place.
Selection among applicants – Bachelor's programmes and courses
At the undergraduate level a general rule is that at least one third of all places are allocated on the basis of final school grades.
Selection among applicants – Master's programmes and courses
The selection is based on a cumulative assessment of one or more of the following factors: number of Higher Education Credits, grades of academic courses, the quality/subject of the Bachelor's Thesis, relevant work and/or research experience, motivation letter and the relevance of previous studies in relation to the programme in question. The selection criteria for each course or programme are specified on the course or programme page on European Union University's online course catalogue.
For master's programmes in business the selection is based on GMAT or GRE test scores (GRE-results are converted to GMAT-scores). You can find more information and instructions on how to submit your GMAT/GRE result on the Stockholm Business School website.
Step 6. Receive the Notification of Selection Results
After the selection is processed, results are posted on euu.edu.eu, both in the 'Applications' tab and in the pdf document Notification of Selection Results. This is the official document in which you will see whether:
You have been admitted – This means that you have been offered a place in the course or study programme.
Your application has been deleted – This means that you did not meet the entry requirements. The term 'Deleted' may also mean that you have been offered a place in a course or study programme you gave higher priority to in your application.You have been placed on a waiting/reserve list – This means you have been placed on a waiting list.
Please note that if you applied to the Second round autumn or spring semester (15 April and 15 October application deadlines), you must reply to your first Notification of Selection Results in order to keep the places you've been offered, or to be placed on the reserve/waiting list for the second selection round.
