Personal spending habits
Over all I used more money that semester, but prices in Sweden are lower and the Norwegian Kroner stronger than the swedish. So living costs were lower and alcohol cheaper, but I went out alot more than I usually do.

Academic
Course recommendations
There are not many lectures a week, which is good if you are an exchange student because it gives you opportunities to travel, think of this when you choose courses

Make different entry requirements to the different courses. Like have to have had an introduction to marketing course before taking cybermarketing, not have to have studied business administration for a year.

Housing
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
Because sharing facilities is good in the beginning for socialising and making friends, but is I shared kitchen bathroom etc with 15 people and that is a bit much. An appartment with a couple of friends would be nice if I were to go back.

Personal comments
I was disapointed when I first saw the place. Just a room (15m2) with old ugly furniture. But i was the cheapest place and quite central, and the international housing office did not bother that much about how late we partied etc. A good place to start of.
