Lunds Universitet

Going out in Lund as a student means mostly going to one of the many student nations. These are kind of student fraternities which organize all kind of activities (sports, parties...). Each nation has its own building and party local. So don't miss to go there! One of my favourite nations was 'Wermlands'.

Housing for internationals is organized by the international housing office. Once you applied there you are assigned a room. So you are spared the hassle of finding something on your own. Internationals mostly live in one of the several big student housing complexes on student corridors, either with one or two other internationals on a "swedish" corridor or on a purely international corridor. The corridor rooms are all singles so you don't have to share it with anybody else. Most rooms have a bathroom and free internet access. Additionally there's a big kitchen on each corridor.

Alcohol in non student pubs is very expensive.

Had a great time there. So if you have the possibility to go there, go!

Didn't have any problems regarding communication. Most swedes, and especially swedish students, speak english very well. Courses for internationals are generally taught in english. The only downside of this is that you aren't really forced to learn and speak swedish. So if you really want to learn swedish you have to give a little effort on your own.
