The Lund University acceptance rate of 58% makes it fairly selective at granting admissions, however, the Chalmers University of Technology acceptance range typically ranges between 80-90%, making it much more easier to secure admissions at.

Students interested in admissions to either institute are required to maintain solid academic scores & a professional resume highlighting other skills, as both Lund & Copenhagen have shown a tendency to be picky to varying extents & priortising highly qualified candidates.

Yes, international students with a valid Sweden study visa, can work any number of hours alongside their studies as there is no limit on work hours for students in Sweden.

However it is worth noting that most universities in the country require students to give out a minimum of 40 hours of study time in a week & therefore students are advised to adhere to the same, to avoid any issues with their study visa. 

Violation of the laws can lead to revocation of the study visa & deportation from Sweden.
