STUDY PLAN
Students must carefully prepare their study plan in advance. Lund University does not offer an add-and-drop period, and opportunities to adjust courses upon arrival are very limited. Please note that full-time studies at Lund University require a workload of 30 credits per semester, equivalent to 30 ECTS credits. Click  HERE for more info and  COURSE INFO.

HOUSING APPLICATION
Housing is always in high demand in Lund, as in many other university cities. Lund University strongly advises students to actively search for accommodation through several different agencies and secure housing for the entire semester before arriving in Lund. While the beginning of the semester often creates a bottleneck, the university encourages students to come to Lund even if housing has not been confirmed, as the situation typically resolves within a few weeks.

STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
Disability Support Services at Lund University provide a variety of support options for students with long-term disabilities. To receive support, the student must have a certificate stating that the disability is long-term or permanent, and/or documentation from the home university. Get in contact with Disability Support Services at Lund University when the student applies to Lund University. Click  HERE for more info.
