…trying not to become a man of success, but rather a man of value. (Albert E.)
This is something you might have or you might hear soon about.
As the phrase goes, pre-offer letters imply that during the admission process some students might receive letters of appreciation from a head of department, or an application reviewer.
This will not be anything fancy, but it will state that they have gone through your application and were delighted by your qualities and profile, and that they hope you will stay with them.
The pre-offer can also be just getting into the DA Selection Group.
The system is domino-like1 therefore even if you get accepted to all your alternatives, only the one with priority 1 will be available for you to accept or deny.
But even if online you will be admitted to one alternative and one only, if you got a pre-offer letter (or DA) then you can still choose to go elsewhere than there you got admitted online.
It might be hard to comprehend these pre-offer letters. But if you got a pre-offer from alternative 2, while you got admitted to alternative 1, and in the meantime you reckoned that alternative 2 is better than the first, you can contact the programme coordinator of alternative 2 and tell them that you are sticking with them. Your admission to alternative 1 will be deleted.
Merely a living soul;
mostly one that survives.
Often seeing the best in people;
surely one that dies trying.

@ Laura H.
Thanks! I’ll graduate in june too (hopefully :)) and i think it is pointless too also because we knew before to apply that we had to have our diploma before to start the master programme. What it confuses me is the date because the master I have applied for starts in august..
well, let’s wait yes, by the way, which is ur Master? is it ur first choice too?
good luck to u too!!

Many of us have misinterpreted LUMAS 999. It doesn’t mean that you are admitted it means you have been highly ranked and selection will take place among highly ranked candidates based on available place.
I had had chit chat with one official from Lund on behalf of this community and insisted her to give some clue about 999 MR. She told me that there are 110 highlt ranked people with 999 MR and available seats are 75. So they have to decide whom they will send admission letters and whom they will place on waiting list for 2nd round.
Same is for all other universities exceptional cases who have been admitted 100% have received SG=DA with 999 MR.
It should be cleared now.

I got MR=999 (LUMAS) at Lund; MR=999 (PG) at Orebro, MR=999 (OS) at Uppsala and 7-14 MR (IM) at Kerolinska.
Praying for all of us for good news on 8th May.

Hi all, I got MR 999 at Malardalen Uni. Hope things are gonna be ok.
BTW, does anyone know if we can refuse a higher Priority University for a lower one in case we are accepted to both?
For i.e, I choose Malardalen for my first priority and Lund for the second one, and I am accepted to both of them. Can I choose to study at Lund in stead of Malardalen?
Thanks

@ Andrei: From where did u got this information?
To which I add.. Selection Group DA always means Direct
Admission, which means you are a special case. It is yet not confirmed, but DA also gives you the possibility to have that alternative as a real choice. Meaning you might be accepted by Priority1 with a different SG, and you could have DA for Priority2. In that case you will be asked to choose between the two.
