Required documents

All students, both international and Swedish, must fulfill the general admission and specific admission requirements for the programme to which they are applying to be admitted to JIBS.

• Bachelor Diploma (certified copy): You must have successfully completed a bachelor degree at a recognized university. Note: If you have not yet received the diploma, but are in your final semester (Spring 2012) you may submit a letter from your university, indicating that it is expected you will graduate in the Spring/Summer 2012, before the start of the JIBS programme. The document must be issued through and certified by a representative of the Academic Registrar's Office, the Examinations Office or equivalent. Certification from other staff members, such as faculty or college staff members, will not be accepted.
• Transcripts (certified copy or sent directly from your university depending on which country your degree is from)*:

Non-EU students who are in their final year of a bachelor degree are recommended to submit their most up-to-date transcripts if they have not already done so by June 1, 2012. This will help us determine if you meet the prerequisites for the programme.

* If your degree was awarded in Cameroon, Canada, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Ghana, Nigeria, Sudan or USA, an official transcript of record must be sent directly from your university to the central Admissions Office, in a sealed envelope. If your degree was awarded in Pakistan, your degrees/transcripts and diplomas awarded must be attested by the Higher Education Commission in Pakistan. Transcripts from other countries may be received as certified copies.

• Certified copy of your Passport (If you are not a citizen of an EU/EEA country or Switzerland, certification of your passport copy is not required. EU/EEA/Swiss citizens may submit a certified copy of a valid identity card which clearly states citizenship in place of a passport copy.)

The documents must be issued in the original language and in officially certified translations in English or Swedish if the documents are not originally in one of these languages. All copies of original documents must be clearly authorised as true copies of the original by the issuing institution or a notary public. Jönköping University may check the authenticity of documents with the issuing school.

• English proficiency- See: Language Requirements
• Specific prerequisites for each programme-  Please check the specific requirements for each programme (listed on the programme pages) before filling in your application form.

Please note that National Diplomas and Higher National Diplomas from Polytechnic schools are not accepted for master studies in Sweden.
