Uppsala, Sweden

Uppsala: A student-friendly city

Uppsala University is located in the city of Uppsala, Sweden's 4th largest city. With a population of 200,000 people, Uppsala offers a lively cultural scene and rapidly expanding business sector.

Uppsala is a beautiful city, divided by the Fyris River into two parts: to the West is the historic quarter; to the east is the residential, commercial, and administrative area. Major attractions in Uppsala are the Uppsala Castle, the Domkyrka (the largest church in Scandinavia), and Uppsala University's library (the largest library in Sweden). Five kilometers north of Uppsala's city center is the Old Uppsala pre-Christian town, an interesting place to explore.

Uppsala is less than 70 kilometers north of Sweden's capital city, Stockholm. In addition, Uppsala is only a short train ride from Arlanda Airport, facilitating easy travel throughout Europe and the world. The country of Sweden is international and this is no exception when it comes to the town of Uppsala, where a large part of the population in Uppsala is Swedish and international students.

Accomodation in Uppsala

Due to the popularity of Uppsala University, student accommodation can be a challenge. There are a variety of different kinds of housing companies available to help students look for suitable accommodation; however, it is common to have to wait in a housing queue before finding a place, so students should start looking for accomodation well before they arrive in Uppsala. The exception is fee-paying master students who will be offered an accomodation guarantee for the first two semesters by Uppsala University.
