No, the KTH Scholarship is specifically for international students from outside the EU/EEA/Switzerland who are required to pay tuition fees for their Master's studies in Sweden. Citizens of EU/EEA countries generally do not pay tuition fees at KTH.
Q.What happens if I apply to multiple Master's programmes at KTH, or if KTH is not my first choice?

Q.Are there specific minimum GPA or percentage marks required to apply for this scholarship?
KTH does not state a specific minimum GPA or percentage. However, the scholarship is highly competitive and primarily awarded based on 'academic excellence.' The selection process considers your grades (GPA or equivalent) and the ranking of your bachelor's degree-awarding university. A strong academic background is crucial.
