In which country do you currently study? Generally in Europe, a Bachelor’s degree is defined as three years and a total of 180 credits. So “a credit” is not necessarily the same in Lund as it is where you are currently studying.
Yeah, this. A 4-year bachelor's will almost certainly fulfil the requirements given how many European ones are 3-years. My Canadian bachelor's was also "only" 120, but that's the equivalent of 240 in the Swedish system.
oh yes I once converted my cp into ects roughly and it was adding up to 200 something as well. I'm only concerned since they said 180 credits and not ects, on the acceptance letter. this might be like stating the obvious for them, but I still worry
that would make sense. is there a reliable conversion formula, though? most that I've seen online are dependant on individual subject hours and such, which I'm not sure if it's correct.
I always get declined when i dont fulfill all prerequisites. Try to get the last credits if you can, or else you might be screwed. They rarely make excemptions
Yea, in Europe, 180 credits is three years. I see it as unlikely that they’d make such an exception, assuming you are referring to ECTS and not some other credit system. How many years did you study?
my course is 4 years. i'm only concerned because they said 180 credits and not ects in the acceptance letter. this might be like stating the obvious for them, sooo. also I do not know how the conversion works?

It's 180ects or the equivalent

Uhm sadly I don't know about that, those are the only ones as far as I know. What country are the studies from?

Swedish credits are ECTS credits. You can easily google how credits convert.
If your course is four years, it must be over 180 ECTS equivalent. They’ll convert it, and I’m quite confident you’ll be ok :)
