We haven't confirmed this year's application window, and these dates move every cycle — so we won't print one. The official page is the only reliable source. Ask us and we'll track it for you and tell you when it opens.
Eligibility
The award to aim at is the Axel Adler Scholarship, a tuition fee waiver with no citizenship restriction, so an Indian applicant competes on equal terms. You must be liable for tuition in Sweden — non-EU/EEA applicants are — and you must apply to a campus-based international programme at Gothenburg as your FIRST PRIORITY. That is the condition people lose on: Swedish admissions rank your choices and the scholarship attaches only to the first. Note too that the Swedish Institute's Women in STEM scholarship, often listed alongside it, covers ten designated countries and India is not among them.
Three dates in sequence, and missing any one ends it. Apply for studies through universityadmissions.se by 15 January, pay the application fee and document your eligibility by 2 February, then — only if you are invited by email — apply for the scholarship itself between 10 and 28 February. Selection weighs your qualifications against the specific programme you chose rather than against a general standard.
