Participants will receive information about the pick-up services in your welcome packet via the mail once you have been accepted. It was very nice having a Karolinska student pick me up at
Central Station, especially since the student had picked up my room key for
me. If she had not picked up my room
key, it would have been one more place to find my way to on my first day. The keys are picked up at KI campus, which is
a bit of a distance from student housing.
In regards to student health, it was very easy to contact and
arrange an appointment or either come at drop-in times to perform the MRSA testing.
Maybe if I had arrived for the arrival day, I would have received this information but it would have been nice to have information on where to buy food, how to get a phone, etc. This information is very helpful for when you are first arriving.
