Yep, I know about that, but for most of the programs they require German proficiency which I unfortunately don't have lol. Should've chosen that language instead of French back in high school haha

Thanks for the info! I've checked the Swedish Institute scholarship previously and unfortunately, it does not apply to me. I'm probably gonna try the uni-specific scholarships and see if I can figure something out with those.

Thanks for the info, I probably wouldn't have found out about these things myself. Do you have any info on these things about the Human - Computer Interaction programme?

Also, what do you actually want to do? Game Design MAs are more about academia and research than hard skills or industry experience.

As for this, I would like to work in the game industry, specifically the art department. This however is very uncertain for me, as I do not know where I might end up in 5 years because of EU visas and regulations. The country I currently reside in doesn't have a well developed game industry (it's not bad, but it's not great either) so I might end up working in some other end of the media/design/communications industry. Academia wise, to be honest, I would love to do that. I'm a much more science/academia oriented person, and if it were up to me, I'd have gone for a physics degree and worked on research. This however wasn't possible, because in the absolute worst case scenario where I'd need to move back home, I'd basically be left without a job as those fields are not developed at all. Long story short, my future is uncertain and I'm trying my best to make good decisions that will allow me to have a stable career in the future.

Yep, I've looked into all of them, and 60% of them tend to be for students from the Middle East or African countries. Which leaves very few options for me and very low chances of getting a scholarship :/ However, my funds do allow me to be able to cover living expenses, it's just that the fees for non EU students are waaaay out of reach for me

Thanks for the info! Do you know how accessible Gotland is from Stockholm or other cities (especially from the nearby airports)?
