About This Opportunity

The Education Entry Grant is a grant program offered by CSN (Swedish National Board of Student Aid) for unemployed individuals who need to study at compulsory or upper secondary school to increase their chances of employment. This grant provides financial support for a limited period to help recipients get started with their studies. The grant is typically paid for four weeks at a time, with the amount depending on the rate of study (full-time or part-time), number of study weeks, and income. Recipients can study for a maximum of 50 weeks full-time or equivalent part-time. The program is designed for individuals aged 25-60 who have been unemployed for at least six months in the past year and have limited prior education. Additional child allowances are available for those with custody of children.
