• Swedish universities have two application windows for the same autumn start; these are not two consecutive tests. This programme appeared in the later window in both 2025 and 2026, so a 2027 listing is a reasonable expectation for a final-year VWO applicant. Confirm the programme listing when 2027 choices are published; the later window lets EU applicants submit final VWO results in July. i

  For autumn 2027, 60% of places are allocated based on upper-secondary grades and 40% by aptitude test. The source does not explain how Dutch VWO applicants are assigned or evaluated within the groups. UHR states that foreign upper-secondary qualifications are assessed in BI, while additional study to meet specific entry requirements places an applicant in BII; the BI historic row is the relevant grade-group comparison for a directly eligible VWO applicant.
