I believe its is a very good university. The facilities are great and the tuition is very good. I personally recommend it to everyone who aspires to benefit from good quality education. To benefit from all this without paying tiution fees is the best education deal anyone could ask for.

The weather here is pretty cold and you need a lot of warmth clothing especially if you're coming from a tropical region like Africa. Save enough money becuase it is almost impossible to find work here. ake sure you have an international students ID card because this will enable you to fly from Stockholm to this place for only SEK300. The flight takes one hour. If you want to travel by train or bus, it will take you approximately 12 or 8 hours respectively. Make sure you buy all your books before you come because books are expensive here. It is a great place to study and i hope very one enjoys it as much as i did.

When would you ever have the time to study in an environment like htis: -20 in winter, lots of snow and northern light, midnightsun in summer! There are about 300 international students there and they are all right to be there! The international office takes good care of you (travelling, parties)and you learn a lot here...academically and personally!

Travel as much as you can, the stand-by flight tickets are excelent to get you anywhere in Sweden. The train is rather cheap too. I don't really know what to say, just ...enjoy!

Don't travel too much. Building up friendships in Sweden takes time and patience, so you should be where your classmates are.

Plenty of courses during summer: maybe the nicest season in Umea with the sun hardly going down. (But with hardly any student life as well)

I wish I knew more about cultural differences between my and host country but it turned out to be interesting anyway. And freezing cold temperatures! Prepare for that!

Great academic and social life, if you have a possibility to go there you should do it. You will not regret it.

One of the best periods of my time. This period abroad encouraged me to go on Erasmus internship exchange in Spain and now I want to look for a job abroad as well. Made me more independent and widened my horizons in every aspect of life.
