4.18 / 5 based on 78 reviews.

With the former University College in Örebro becoming a university an almost half a century old dream has become a reality in our town - a dream that crashed several times against the reality of that time.

Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Home university
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why? On campus, you are leaving with exchange students and swedish students as well. It allows you to be completly integrate in University and student life
Personal comments:
I was leaving with 7 swedish girls and quiet close to every exchange student. It allows me to discover the sxedish way of life and be connected with exchange too. Flat are really clean and well organized, we were sharing the kitchen and the lounge and we had ou own bathroom.

ACADEMIC

My academic experiences
Quality of courses
KEY:
Fantastic.
Pretty good.
Could've been a bit better.
Disappointing.
Variety of courses
Availability/access to resources
Interaction with teachers
Interaction with other international students
Interaction with local students
Course recommendations:
the swedish system is really flexible: don't hesitate to take time to visit the country and benefit from your social life overthere, because you can always arrange with teachers (for courses and exams). There are mainly team works: don't study with people from your home country, learn other way by studying with swedish, spanish, german, american ... students. It's amazing and so profitable to you.
