Although our courses are taught in English, IEGS is a Swedish school and therefore follows the same rules as any other Swedish gymnasium. For example, if you wish to take one of the national Swedish gymnasie programmes, you are required to have passed Swedish in Grade 9 or its equivalent (ex. through Sofia Distans). All Swedish applicants from abroad MUST start in Year 1 and are required to meet the requirements that are needed to start a Swedish gymnasie programme.
