Tuition Fee Waivers

University of Borås Tuition Fee Waivers

The University of Borås can offer tuition fee waivers to highly qualified students required to pay tuition fees.

The tuition fee waivers offered by the University of Borås are intended to cover the tuition fee, they are not designed to cover living costs. The payment is not made in monetary terms; instead your tuition fee will be reduced by the amount of the  tuition fee waiver.

The University’s deciding criteria in awarding  tuition fee waivers are good study records as well as qualifications that the University assesses to be in line with the University’s prioritised educational or research areas.
