Exchange report - incoming students
Home university: Universitetet i Oslo
Study programme: Medicine
Exchange programme: Erasmus
Semester: Autumn semester 2014/2015

Arrival and registration

Introduction day was nice, but it didn't feel so relevant as none of the other exchange students that day were on my programme. 

Acommendation

Quite difficult to get housing, I applied too late for Karolinska housing. I found a place to stay at blocket.se. Expensive. 

Leisure time and social activities

The Swedish students were really nice. I have friends from before that live in Stockholm. I made new friends, but didn't join social activities arranged by Erasmus. 

Pre-departure

I went on exchange because I had heard nice things about being an exchange student at Karolinska and I wanted to try something else. 

Courses during the exchange period

D10X01 : Clinical medicine-emphasis on reproduction and development
Very good and relevant course.

Summary

I am really happy I went to KI! 

Language and Culture

No language course. 

Studies in general

I really liked the amount of clinical education, a lot more than I am used to. The teachers were nice and welcoming, as were the Swedish students.
