The scholarships are awarded primarily on the basis of academic excellence and the selection process is undertaken in parallel with the admission process. Only applicants who fulfil the admission requirements of the applied programme are eligible for a scholarship.
The application should provide the University with a Curriculum Vitae, a motivation letter and a letter of recommendation. The motivation letter and the letter of recommendation must contain no more than 600 words each.
The following questions should be answered in the motivation letter:
- Why do you want to study this programme?
- What other qualities do you have besides academic excellence?
- What are your career aspirations?
In order to have a successful application, make sure to be eligible, complete all these steps of the process, and that you have the documentation required to finalise your application in time.
In the application, make sure to:
- Have your 8-digit application number at hand (from your account/application on universityadmissions.se)
- Use the same e-mail address as the one you registered at your account on universityadmissions.se
The scholarship recipient will receive the offer in April. Luleå University of Technology (LTU) cannot give any preliminary notifications regarding whether a scholarship applicant will be offered the scholarship or not. However, all applicants for scholarships administrated by LTU will be notified when the selection is completed.
If you receive an offer, you have to confirm that you accept the scholarship offer by the deadline specified in the notification.
Failure to confirm before the deadline will result in the scholarship offer to be rescinded.
Please note, if you want to change or add, something to your application, you must submit a new application. In such a case, your previous application will be cancelled.
