Freemover (also called 'independent') Student
The information below and on the rest of the pages under “Bachelor’s Degrees” is directed at “freemover” applicants.
Freemover is a term used for international students who come to Malmö University on their own. Freemover students are usually not studying at another university or their home university does not have an exchange agreement with Malmö University. We offer both course and full programmes for freemover applicants.
Prospective students from the European Economic Area (EEA), the European Union (EU) and Switzerland do not pay tuition fees, or an application fee to study at Malmö University. Students who are citizens of countries from outside the EEA or EU must pay tuition fees, and an application fee.
