It is really lovely how the university try to keep in contact with all the students, to as a part of their job but also as a part of the new family that you get when you became a Erasmus student.

The University of Skövde offers enough courses in English; Skövde is a student town; do not live alone in an appartment, choose a student accomodation. Studying abroad is more than just university
