SLAB/SLAI Scholarship 2026

The SLAB/SLAI Scholarship refers to a Swedish Institute scholarship category historically aimed at students from selected countries, administered by the Swedish Institute. In current Swedish Institute scholarship structures, this type of opportunity is associated with scholarships for international students pursuing eligible master's-level studies in Sweden.

These scholarships are designed to support talented and motivated applicants with strong academic and professional potential. They are generally intended for students who have applied to an eligible master's programme at a Swedish university and who meet the nationality and programme-specific criteria set by the Swedish Institute for that cycle.

Funding typically covers the major costs of study, often including tuition fees and a living stipend, and may also include other benefits connected to studying in Sweden. Exact benefits can vary by intake and scholarship category, so applicants should always check the official Swedish Institute guidance for the relevant year.

Eligibility usually depends on nationality, admission to an eligible Swedish master's programme, and meeting the scholarship's academic and documentation requirements. Applicants normally apply through the Swedish national admissions system for their study programme and then submit a separate scholarship application to the Swedish Institute if invited or eligible to do so.

If you are interested in this scholarship, it is important to confirm whether the SLAB/SLAI designation is being used in your target call and to review the current Swedish Institute scholarship page carefully, as programme names and country groups may change over time.
