    Jönköping University Early Childhood
    Tell us about Jönköping University
    Facilities, communication and transport links are very rich and accesible however the number of the accomodation the school offers is not enough and the flats are very small. Besides as a married woman, I couldn’t benefit the accomodation since spouses are not allowed. The social life is colorful I may say thanks to students but society keeps their distance to non-Swedes.

    The school offers different accomodations adapting to different budgets. Point for improvement is the staff working in accommodation and their understanding of different cultures. School works with students, and has great opportunities for students to create events and challenge themselves.

    University is very well organized, including the courses and outside life. They organized the guaranteed accommodation for international students and it was very helpful, as we did not need to take care of it. Staff is super helpful and willing to do the best

    The university offers high-end facilities that accommodate all student's needs. We have labs equipped with the newest computers available to us at all times, the teachers are there for us and ready help whenever needed, the buses to university are well-connected and the social life is abundant! No week is boring, because there is always something going on at the university, whether it's something organised by students for students, or if companies outside of the university come and host interesting events with gifts for students. There are also many social events every week outside of university, like parties and hang outs offered by the students for other students.
