- This is somewhat of a guide for those of you who are thinking of studying in Sweden, or those of you who have just moved to Sweden to study, Erasmus student or otherwise. I'm not sure how useful it is, but perhaps you'll find some of it interesting. Perhaps. Maybe. Or something. Enjoy :D

hmmmmm what if im from other countrie and i wana studie in sweden? what permisions i need?
Is it better to study abroad in the fall or spring semester in Sweden? I plan on studying at Lund University and I would like to travel to Lapland for the Northern Lights sometime during my study abroad. I also hope to make some friends while abroad. My current university is on the quarter system so I’d miss only one quarter if I go in the fall versus two quarters if I go in the spring.
Have you ever heard of Malardalen University in Sweden? Can’t find very much online what is the night life like around there?
For a doctor, which one is better UK or Sweden or Netherlands? What do you think? And where is better for partying?
I'm from Philippines and I have Swedish friends :)
I could see all the polka dots ...great content
I would love to study or even move to Sweden unfortunately I am exceptionally poor. How poor? Below the poverty line in Canada so I highly doubt I'll ever be able to go Sweden in my life time.
Sir.. I have asthma and allergic to cold. Will I survive there?
11:20 - 11:32 No one could have said it any better 💪
i want to study in sweden, in stockholm specifically, and i’ve done some research but i’m still rather confused about the accommodation!! as an international student, do they ensure you accommodation in dorms or something or do you have to find accommodation by yourself?
This depends on the university/school. Some universities have dorms or student housing and others don't. In any case, if I were you, I'd ask your school about this and see what they recommend. Hopefully you can get student housing! Otherwise, I've made a video on looking for accommodation in Sweden as well... shameless plug ~ Good luck! :D
The Fish Slappee thank you so much!!
Hi! Great video, I should be studying this winter in Lund. What are you experiences of this town?
I've only gone past it on the train, but I have friends there who seem to think it's lovely! ^^
do you think it possible to work part-time during the year? and is it easy to find a job without knowing any swedish?😅
is it easy to find a job as an university student?
no exam week? im taking the next plane to sweden hahah
I'm looking to study abroad in Sweden in 2025! Thanks a ton for the video and its great insights. I am starting to learn Swedish now and hoping I'll have enough time to reach a decent level. Will Swedes default to English when they realise I am not native? How good does your Swedish have to be for them to only talk Swedish to you.
I had an American girl in my masters degree class that said she had a bit of a trouble learning Swedish because everyone spoke English to her to be nice and friendly! But if you tell em you want to learn Swedish, if they start talking in English! They will probably understand and start talking in Swedish! :)
I'm thinking of moving to Stockholm for work... we will see how that goes ;)
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohh ~~ please do! :D Btw, is this like your "business trip" or actual work? ^^
No that would be actual work.. I applied for a job at Epidemic Sound (you might have heard of them), they have their HQ in Stockholm..
Whaaat no way, I grab music and SFX from them all the time! :D Shit that's cool, I hope you get it!
Dear Mr. Fish....Thanks for the video. 1. What is Erasmus? Do you have any feedback on Lund University that our son is considering or how would it compare to Uppsala? Thanks.
Erasmus is the study exchange program between universities, mainly (only?) in Europe. And I've never been to Lund, but friends tell me it's a great city for students. Uppsala and Lund are often listed as the two major university towns in Sweden (even though both Stockholm and Gothenburg are lovely cities to live and studie in)
You sound like my Grandmother on the virtues of exchange and travel she attended Uppsala
nice vids thanks!! how difficult is it to transfer to Stockholm to do masters? Considering that I don't have super-rich parents, I work now and I guess I will keep working there too in case it's possible. I am an architect student and I am really like Swedish culture, studying and working quality. thanks in advance!!!
Hi Laura! ^^ You don't need rich parents to make it work (although I suppose it would help eheh)! As a student here you are allowed to work a part time job to support your studies. Sorry about the brief answer!! Good luck! ^^ :D
@@FishSlappee how important would it be to know swedish to get a part-time job…? 😅😅😅
@@junedaniel2981for a part time position especially in the larger cities there should be no issues as long as you speak fluent English. Your job choices will be limited though. When it comes to a full time position Swedish becomes more important but you can still find work without being fluent.
cool!
i study now in Helsingborg. i wish i saw your video before coming here
Oh really, how come? Is Helsingborg no fun?
@@FishSlappee hahahah not so much! :D
perfect
woooooo!
Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot
of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!
Student loans? For whar, books,rent, parties?
Student loans for day-to-day needs hat keep you alive such as for food, but also for tools useful for your studying.
Do u have in Sweden something like families who are offering a bed an food, like a guest family, for exchange students/students abroad?
Yes there is! Google 'Swedish host family for student' and you'll find a bunch of information :)
@@FishSlappee Thank you very much!
Hello, as an EU citizen, can I take a student loan (CSN) in Sweden?
Yes, you actually can. There are certain requirements however, go to csn.se and click on english titles.
What country you suggest for Erasmus 1 semester?
Wherever you're most interested in going! Sweden seems like a fun place to study as an exchange student though 😄
What does she mean with nations? Is that a group of people all from the same country?
no, it's more like a group of people from a region in Sweden, but anyone is free to join any "nation", so don't worry ^^ The name is a bit confusing, now that you mention it... thanks for the comment!
Nations is like a club for people from the same county/province in Sweden.
i already have a dream, i think seriously about my future, ihave boyfriend but i dont want marry and be housewife, im 26 years and i want to start to study NOW, but never been in univercity so far, even in my country... i have only finished gymnasium, but with good success, ...i am curious person and i have been many times in Sweden, even i have been more there than in my country:D i know little or more about Sweden, the dail life, some traditions,people behaviour. like it so much and now i think to start study there. for example IT technologies. i know English and i started study swedish in duolingo, i want to develop myself and i like it very much. Can you give me advice - am i must first start study in my country, then Sweden, or i can go straight to Sweden? only with gymnasium diploma? i have been in Stockholm, Goteborg, Malmo etc. i like all. puss och kram, tack
I don't know your financial situation of where you're from, but I would say you can start studying in Sweden without studying in your country before. And goodness, don't worry about becoming a housewife. If you don't want to become one then there should be nothing forcing you, I say. I'm two years older than you and planning to go back to Japan without very specific plans haha ~ So go for it, if you want to move to Sweden I think you should! ^^
@@FishSlappee tack so mycket, I have ok financial situation for the moment, we bought an apartment and now I taking care of it, I'm alone, is ok, but I feel that we will not understand with him under 1 roof for long term. Is long story, ........ I want to Escape from everyone and everything and be independent alone and successful, we have many differencec with him, but work connecting us. I should earlier to collect money for Me, but I did more stupid things. Now I will try invest some and collect. Will see.... But I like Sweden so much and the people there, in my country Bulgaria, men are Dominants and controlling and he is nervous and agressive, that's the reason...and he made me to feel like nothing can't happen from me, always say that I'm stupid, he with the years broke my self confidence, but recently,i changed myself and I look every day affirmations, motivation videos, ,i feel strong now and Love Myself on 1st place,..just don't know how will escape from this Net. Life and God will show me the right way😘now live for the Day
Health and life is most important
No confidence to anyone
Only Family love you clearly 🥰
But I will not marry now, for him, noo. Maybe in future.... For Swedish gentleman
Ps I not studied in university because of our relationship, I was put Pink glasses but now I start see the Reality. Uhhhh...., 😒
But we did good things and gained finances but it will be maybe only for him because this apartment now I like it, but with him together I couldn't live for long, so everything will go to Him, and I would like only freedom 🗽and indepence and to try live in my way, will see, God to give me power 💪⚡and strength.
Bye for now good luck🍀🤞
Is that sweden is good place for muslim student? I really want study in sweden
Absolutely, no problem! Sweden (at least tries to be) a very open society and there are plenty of muslims in Sweden, studying and otherwise 😄
@@FishSlappee thank you
Anyone of you can i ask for some question about sweden. Lets be friend
Rahma Yulita if you want to know anything here’s my instagram- yaaaraaahhh.
What kind of exam is accepted by swedish university?
Depends on the uni but specifically for Stockholm school of economics i know they accept SAT, ACT, and even GRE and GMAT I believe! I just know from American pov since thats where I applied from!
@@Doons what about academic IELTS?
@@miracle6038 yes those work according to their website. Do you know what you want to study? Swedish schools are somewhat niched into different careers so stockholm school of economics is business, then you have KTH which is tech then you have others
@@Doons it is worth having dreams but everything depends on a plenty of money and without its we are loser:O
@@Doons do you recommend any universities good for engineering
Guys... Studying in Norway or in Sweden?
come here, Norway is expensive!! :D (never even been to Norway though and every Norwegian person I've ever met have been lovely so don't listen to me)
@@FishSlappee AHAH I'll binge on all of your sweden videos then ahah
Roehampton is one of the shitiest ghetto in London... hated picking up or dropping ppl off there.

Most classes are ofc in Swedish, but there are plenty of classes in English catering to foreign students :)
There is no way this guy is a typical Swede! ;)
Penguins? Those look like snowmen glasses
Eating a jävla kexchoklad 😂😂😂
