University Studies in Sweden
FE 1
SE-833 83, Strömsund
SWEDEN

• FE 1 is a P.O. BOX
• SE-833 83 is the correct Zip Code. Swedes only are required to send them to SE-833 82!

In case you are sending your papers through DHL/FedEx or any other express/air courier, I received an official notice saying that you should use the following address. I confirm that my documents have been delivered at the right place (dated 20080121) and that the delivery has been confirmed by the Office as well (dated 20080129).

University Studies in Sweden
Ulriksfors 420
SE-833 93 Strömsund
SWEDEN

• You do not need a contact person and a phone number. But if in need you could try Henrik Sjobert - +46 67816053.
• Due to the remote location of Strömsund, mail deliveries will usually be carried out to Stockholm, and then the Swedish Post Office will deliver it to Strömsund. Therefore, for instance with DHL, you will see on your tracking page that your last message saying that delivery has been set up, and you should expect no further details from this point. It means that they cannot track down what the Swedish Post Office is doing. But if you sign up for delivery confirmation by phone, you will receive an SMS, as soon as the Swedish Post Office has made the final leg of the delivery (Stockholm - Strömsund).
• SE-833 93 is the correct Zip Code. Although it is not the same as the zip code used in previous address (833 83)
• This address has been provided through an official response to my questions. If you Google it, you will find it as being used in 2007 by Chalmers specifically for international prospective students who need to use DHL/FedEx or similar. It is also to be found at Umeå University’s website at http://www.umu.se/studentcentrum/iao/faq.html or at http://www.umu.se/studentcentrum/iao/Required%20documents.htm - slightly different, but pointing at the same place (Antagningen = Dept. of Applications; lacks the street number for Ulriksfors; gives a contact person in the name of Ingela Forsén)

The National Admissions Office (or VHS - Verket för högskoleservice in Swedish) can be reached through the information available here: http://vhs.se/templates/Page.aspx?id=1002 (Applications related only).¹

You should NOT mail anything to the universities, unless specifically requested to do so!

And you only need one and only one package to be sent! The cover sheet that you print from studera.nu will link to all the chosen programmes/universities!

Please do not leave the mailing down to the last minute. Allow the delivery two weeks to be on the safe side, since Strömsund is a remote area and it takes around 3 days to get the the documents from Stockholm or another mailing backbone node to Strömsund.
