[Sweden/Syria]: Sweden.se - The Swedish Institute Study Scholarships (Syria)

Due to the difficult situation in Syria, The Swedish Institute has decided to allocate up to 15 scholarships for Syrian students on an annual basis for two years.  The scholarships are for full-time master’s level studies in Sweden for the academic years of 2014/15 and 2015/16, i.e. a total maximum of 30 scholarships.

The scholarship offer is within the scope of the regular scholarship process for the Swedish Institute Study Scholarships. Scholarships are granted on condition that the students have been admitted to a master's programme (i.e. not bachelor’s) at a Swedish university. However, all admitted students cannot be guaranteed a scholarship.

Applicants must be Syrian citizens but may, at the time of application and admission, reside in a country other than Syria, including Sweden. The scholarship is for applicants who have completed bachelor's studies from a Syrian University.

Scholarship application period: February 3-11, 2014.
