“Language is the largest barrier for better student life experience”

Overall
Generally it's a good study experience, the teachers are professional and classmates are friendly. However, being the only international student in the track means sometimes you have problem understanding what people are talking after class, such as off-class discussion with teachers and group chat. Besides that, the program design is good and I do learn something here.

I wish I had known...
The importance of arriving at the beginning of the term (I arrived 3 weeks later for an exam in Italy): it was the best period to start knowing the University and the other students.
The too high cost for particular things, common in Italy but very hard or expensive to find there.

Book flights in advance.
Try to learn the local language as much as you can: it will help you to understand the culture, the people and it's a base in learning new languages.

Come to Uppsala. Even if you don'y know anyone don't worry, it's easy to meet friends and everybody will help you (Swedes are really kind). Everything sound easy. No problems at all. And the level of study is one of the highest in Europe. Uppsala is the oldest university in Scandinavia; there are international students from every place in the world. Simply great!
