    Hard deadline
    Details

    Everything except the IB results themselves, which have until 5 July.

    The general document deadline for the second round. It is not the date for your IB results: University Admissions gives IB students completing their studies this spring until 5 July 2027 for that (next entry). Anything else you need - an ID copy, other transcripts - goes in by 21 June, and University Admissions asks you to upload documents you already have with the application.

  3. 1 February 2027

    First round — supporting documents, and your proof of fee exemption
    Hard deadlineDiploma holders only
    Details

    Also the deadline to document EU/EEA/Swiss citizenship for fee exemption. Five months before IB results are published, which is the problem to solve early rather than in January.

    One day, three things. As an EU/EEA citizen you pay no application fee and no tuition, but you do not get the exemption automatically — you have to document your EU/EEA citizenship by this date, and University Admissions handles that on the same deadline it uses to collect the fee from everyone else. All supporting materials are due the same day.

Worth knowing

No Uppsala programme page shows an autumn 2027 intake yet (its pages still say autumn 2026), so the subject rules here are 2026 criteria; 2027 not yet published.

All 3 notes
  • No Uppsala programme page shows an autumn 2027 intake yet (its pages still say autumn 2026), so the subject rules here are 2026 criteria; 2027 not yet published.
  • Uppsala urges international students to apply in January, which you cannot while still at school; in 2026 all eight also ran in the April round (e.g. UU-P5370), but no 2027 round of either kind is published yet.
  • Uppsala's Global English Studies bachelor's is not listed: its page says it requires knowledge of Swedish.
