Selection & entrance exam
As there are typically more applicants than available spots for a program, a selection process is necessary to fairly determine who will be admitted. Merit points may be awarded during the selection process, and it’s those applicants with the highest merit points who are admitted to a program.
The selection process consists of two main components:
Upper Secondary School grades:
Admission Test
Upper Secondary School grades:
The admission test is the component of the selection process that awards the highest number of merit points. Here you can read what special prerequisites each education has.
Points are calculated as follows:
A = 4 points
B = 3 points
C = 2 point
D = 1 point
E = 0 points
Please note that no merit points are awarded for the Site Manager Program based on Upper Secondary School grades.

Important info to increase your chances of starting to study at Nackademin.
The entrance exam is the part of the selection process that gives the highest merit points. We therefore recommend everyone to write the entrance exam to accumulate merit points and increase their chances of being admitted. Without writing the entrance exam, it is difficult to be admitted to an education.
Please note that you cannot qualify or be admitted to a program by writing the entrance exam, but it is only an opportunity to collect important credit points.
