Late application

Procedure for late applications to the autumn semester 2025

After the application deadline, applications to SLU’s courses and programmes are temporarily closed. This also applies if you have already been admitted to a programme and are only taking programme-specific courses.

Late applications will then open for courses and programmes where places may still be available. The dates for late applications differ:

• The bachelor's programme Forest and Landscape will open for late application via www.antagning.se 16 April. 
• Master's programmes and courses, including programme courses, vill open for late applications once the admission results have been published, i.e. mid-July for the autumn semester and mid-December for the spring semester. SLU strongly encourage all international students to apply in the first admission round, as non-EU/EEA students who require a residence permit won't have enough time to apply for and receive one.

Please remember that your application is not complete until you have submitted all necessary documentation to the University Admissions account. Find out more about entry requirements. 

If you have been admitted to a programme and have accepted your place, you can find more information about when the initial course starts, the timetable and the reading list on the course web pages.

How to submit a late application:

1. Log on to universityadmissions.se.
   If you are a degree programme student at SLU, use your SLU user details to log on. This will display the courses on your programme.
2. Make sure you select the right semester.
3. Search for the course(s) or programme(s) you are interested in.

Just because a course or programme is open for late applications does not necessarily mean that there are places left. If there are, you may be offered a place even if the deadline for applications has passed. You must, of course, meet the entry requirements. Late applications are processed in the order they are submitted.

Follow the instructions at universityadmissions.se for submitting documentation to demonstrate your eligibility, if you have not already done so.

You may find it easier to first look for the course you want to apply for on the SLU course search page. Then go to universityadmissions.se to see if it is still open for late applications.

During the period between the deadline for replying to offers and the second selection round, you cannot submit a late application.

If you forget to accept your offer, you will need to reapply when you get your second admission decision.

If you have submitted a late application, you will be notified by email or regular mail once your application has been processed. You can then log on to your account at universityadmissions.se to see your admission decision.
