What we can confirm

Verify before you pay anyone
- Recognition and licensing rules change over time. Re-check the current NMC-eligible colleges list and this country's regulations for Sweden yourself before paying anything.
- Never pay an agent or "seat reservation" fee in cash, or before you have a signed offer letter directly from the university.
- A guaranteed admission, a discounted "management quota" seat, or pressure to decide within 24 hours are classic pressure tactics — slow down and verify independently.
- Confirm the medium of instruction, hostel/food costs, and total multi-year fee in writing from the university itself, not only from an agent's brochure.
