I can recommend this university. There are opportunities to study even though you would not know the local language. Also housing free time activities are well arranged.

Overall
Honestly, I had fantasies in my head and believed it will a Cinderella story which will results with happiness but I was wrong.life in this country is expensive firstly.....I love mean I had to become a semi vegetarian because vegetarian food seems cheaper. The teachers are great very understanding and always willing to assist where they can. the campus was great had access to all study material and even field visits hence gave a practical approach to the studies.

Do not forget to discover as much as you can in Scandinavia and to keep close contacts with locals. And even if learning swedish is not always funy, it might worth it when you'll be the only one speaking swedish on the job market !

To save as much money as humanly possible before leaving, because there are much better things here to spend money on than at home.

The study is not the most important part of this experience, so don't come for here if that's all you want to do. Uppsala is an amazing social experience, and the people you meet will change your life.

Make sure you travel as much as you can when you're here, go up the Lapland, bring warm clothes, learn some basic swedish before you arrive.

No, I think the best part of it was going without knowing what my experience was going to be.

Collect useful information before going like housing, cost living, travelling facilities. But be always open to new cultures and experiences that can make you improve in a personal, academic and professional way.

Uppsala is nice because it is a student town, but also because it is very close to Stockholm, thus it is very easy to travel from this city.
But it is important to go there with personal saving, to travel and take advantage of all that the student live provides in Uppsala.
