The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences, GIH, currently holds partnership agreements with several European universities through the Erasmus+-programme.

Students who are citizens of countries outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland are in general required to pay application and tuition fees for studies in Sweden.
