Have fun over there, travel as much as you can, it is one of the best places in Europe to do so... Go to Denmark, Norway, Poland, Finland, all over Sweden, take advantage of Vaxjo location. If you can, take your car with you.It makes the trips more fun, and in the end, you'l be saving money.

Housing
Type of housing: a dorm room downtown
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: the same
Why?
there are 5 places for exchange students , and only one is directly on Campus. But the main advantage of the others accomodations is that you feel like in a big family. Indeed, you leave in a student room and share living and kitchen but in a place where everything is made to make you feel like at home. Honnestly, it is really nice to be down town also. 15 mn by bike and you are at University.

Everything is organize by the Interntional Office. You don t have to handle your accomodation except if you want to stay for a little bit more than expected. I stayed until September and i had to found a new room for only two weeks because of the arrivals of the new semester exchange students.

Housing
Type of housing: A room exchange
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I lived together with two French students and one Spanish student. Living together with people of two different kinds of cultural backgrounds is such a great experience. Next to that, you'll make friends for life.

Växjö Universitet is very well organised. It has its own housing officer. She is a wonderful person that does a real good job at finding housing for international students. International students will live off campus, but that is not a problem, because you live together with other international students. And your neighbours and your neighbours neighbours will be international students too. If you are willing to study at Växjö Universitet, housing is no problem whatsoever.

Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
I feel that my accomodation gave me the greatest exposure to Swedish life. You have to share almost everything with your fellow students. My room was comfortable and the other students living in the hall became some of my best friends.

Personal comments
The university has two sections of housing. One section is in the downtown area (where I lived), and the other is on-campus. I truly enjoyed living in the city. It was easy enough to get to campus, and it gave me a feeling that I was really a part of daily life in a Swedish community. It was close to all the shopping and restaurants as well. I can also say that the housing everywhere in Vaxjo is of the highest quality!

Rallo P
Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: On campus
Why?
Because all activities are on the campus and you can meet a lot of people! you don't need to buy a transport card which is expensive and you have more facilies to acces to internet.
