How to apply, Composition
Your application in three steps:
1. Apply at www.universityadmissions.se
2. Submit portfolio and personal letter
3. An interview via Skype or Zoom
The University seeks applicants who demonstrate cognizance, introspection, and self-sufficiency in their artistry, in addition to high-level musical competence. In the interview, it is thus of distinction if the applicant can indicate a potential topic for the degree project, which is a central aspect of the programme. Since there is no set model for the degree project, it is favourable if the applicant is particularly passionate about a specific topic and has an awareness of both the subject to be explored, as well as the goals to be achieved.
