As an under-19 international she played the 2009 U-19 European Championship, where Sweden won a silver,[9] and the 2010 U-20 World Cup.[10]
Schough was called into the senior national team by coach Pia Sundhage for the 2013 Algarve Cup. She made her debut at the tournament in a 1–1 draw with China. Sundhage also selected Schough for UEFA Women's Euro 2013, which Sweden hosted.[11]
In May 2015, Schough and Eskilstuna teammates Malin Diaz and Sara Thunebro were named in Sundhage's Sweden squad for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.[12]
Schough was named to Sweden's roster for the 2016 Summer Olympics, she appeared in all six games for Sweden, winning the silver medal.[13]
In June 2017, Schough was named in Sweden's squad for the UEFA Women's Euro 2017. She played in three matches for Sweden, who were eliminated by the Netherlands in the Quarterfinals.[14]
