do not go there if you want to have an easy life without studying at all. if you want to broaden your academic horizon i would totally recommend lund university for economic students.

Personal comments
In Sweden every one speaks english so it was very easy to get around only with that language: But it was a pleasure to learn the swedish language, because the grammar and most of the words are very similar to geramn so it was quite easy for me. But if you don´t like to learn that language, because you say you don´t need it, no problem english is enough. The tele, cinema and all other things are only with swedish subtittles and the language is still the original one of the movie.
At the university it is no problem to follow the courses, because nearly no one is a native english speaker, so the sentences are easy to understand and it is no problem doing mistakes.

I would recommend to come to Lund and make the most of your time here, try to travel around Sweden as Lund is a perfect starting point. Enjoy the lifestyle and try to get to know as many people from all over the world as possible it gives you a real insight into different cultures.

Didn't have any problems regarding communication. Most swedes, and especially swedish students, speak english very well. Courses for internationals are generally taught in english. The only downside of this is that you aren't really forced to learn and speak swedish. So if you really want to learn swedish you have to give a little effort on your own.

If you are interested in discovering scandinavia and northern Europe you have to go there.
If you want to meet and acculturate with swedish people you'd better go somewhere else in Sweden, or at least not leave in an international residence.

Lund is a "bicycle city". New students should buy a bicycle soon after their arrival.
