Abstract	Student support consists not only of direct financial support, but also of educational provisions that are free of charge or subsidized by the state and local authorities. These provisions include formal education, as schools for young people and adults as well as higher education, and non-formal education, such as study circles and folk high schools. In order to obtain the full picture of the social context, an overview of the Swedish educational system is needed. This paper therefore provides an introduction to the current Swedish educational system. It describes the student financial support available from upper secondary school to university, including adult education, and considers the administration and costs of the system. Finally, the effects of the support system on social equity and the opportunities for individuals to finance lifelong learning, together with the future demand for financing lifelong learning, are analyzed.
