Study in Sweden info session

Students interested in studying in Europe should attend this informational meeting to learn about two of Augustana College's annual exchange programs in Sweden.

These are fall 2019 in Jönköping, Sweden, at Södra Vätterbygdens Folkhögskola SVF, or spring 2020 at Uppsala University near Stockholm. There also is an option for a full academic year 2019-2020 at Uppsala.

The deadline for fall 2019 is Dec. 10, 2018. 

The deadline for entire academic year 2019-20 is Dec. 10, 2018. Deadline for spring 2020 is Feb. 10, 2019.

SVF is in central Sweden on the shores of one of Sweden’s great lakes, Lake Vättern, in the province of Småland. Students will spend fall semester exploring Sweden with a cohort of Swedish and American students, as well as trips to European cities like Rome, Copenhagen, and Berlin. 

SVF is a small, cozy school which has been welcoming American exchange students for more than 45 years, one of the longest running exchange programs between Sweden and the United States. 

Augustana has a longstanding relationship with Uppsala University, one of Europe's prestigious academic centers and Sweden's premiere school for the liberal arts. Founded in 1477, the university is one of the oldest schools in northern Europe. 

With Augustana's exchange program, students in any major can spend a semester or a year in Sweden, earning 12-30 credits in numerous fields. This program is open to any major and is recommended for students in Scandinavian studies, business administration, political science, history, English and all traditional liberal arts and sciences.
