Please don't ask me questions about LU accommodation, visa, jobs/career, scholarships, or other programs. I've received a lot of questions about administrative things that I don't know the answers to, and all of this info can be found on the LU website OR by contacting the university directly :)
This video is about my life in lund as a student, not how to get into the university, and everything i know is already in the video! I can only reply to questions about my personal experience and clarifications about things i mentioned in the video.
I'm sorry i can't help more! Anything that's related to administration, admissions and other uni stuff can be found online or by contacting the right people. Good luck! 😌🌸
Lund is a very old city with its history going back till 990 AD.
It means that the Lund stands tall, proud and firm for more than thousand years.
😆😆
It should always stand tall 😂
😂😂😂
great video! super useful info and i love how you stitched it together. thanks!
I really appreciate your storytelling tone, and you seem very kind!
love this, i am going to move to lund soon , seems to be such a nice place to study in, the sommunity, the life everyone shares. LOVE THIS
Manifesting and working towards moving to Lund next year, thanks for the information 🎉
i always want to be a student in sweden and i have no idea about sweden, your videos inspiration for me! i hope someday i come to sweden and i hope i can city tour by bike
The name of this university always makes me chuckle.😂😂😂
Why?😅
@@lilyoktari5643 it means pp in urdu/hindi
Hahahaha I can understand 😂😂
@@lilyoktari5643it means dick in hindi and other indian subcontinental languages 😅
🤣🤣🤣
Moving to Lund in a couple of days to hopefully become an engineer within surveying. I'm really excited to move but at the same time I'll miss my friends back in Uddevalla (4hrs drive).
So nice!! Having lived in Lund myself, I feel like your representation of it is quite accurate. I would add: the bus system is actually pretty good, for short rides you can have access to bigger parks, nice hikes, forests, lakes, and beaches such as Lomma (the closest one to Lund, a 40min bike ride).
Loved your video!
Everyone has come from lund since the dawn of humanity. 😂🤣🤣
How did you feel after living in Lund?
For short ride 😂😂
Could you give particular examples for good places/hikes to do around Lund? Creating a bucket list for September haha
ahhhhhhhh just noticed that you also grew up in shanghai and attend my dream master's program! I'm now applying for the 2023 autumn program! just gonna mark here and get some good luck from you :) nice video and really helpfull!!!

As an indian, i really enjoy the name of this city xD
😹
If you are studying in this uni then you can truly say :
"Meri University Lund hai"
@@Ali_109 😂😂
Hi Romy! Great video :) I finished my Master of Environmental Management last week in Australia - it's been surreal. How cool we study similar things. I didn't know you grew up in Shanghai! You should make a video about your upbringing; you've lived in many places, across different cultures & I'm sure it will be interesting! Take care, Sophia x
Hi Sophia 💕 Congrats on finishing your masters that's amazing!! What's your next chapter? Ohh i'd be very happy to share my experience actually, thanks for suggesting that 🥰 big hugs xx
@@teawithromy is lund good how big is it ???
I would add that if you intend tu study at lund university you will have access to the nations (student groups, kind of like frat/ sorority houses but they are mixed) the nations also have their own clubs and bars that you can go to as a student for a lower cost than regular bars and clubs. Also the drinks there are much cheaper than other places. :)
this interesting i would love to study there hopefully for my master's, do u guys offer scholarships for international students
Great!! I really enjoy ur video:))
Thank you for this video :)
Nice Video I want to know more about this place n could love to study in Sweden.
Thank you so much for the video!! Currently looking for a university to study 1 semester abroad and Lund looks very cozy and cute. Even though it doesn't have a nightlife.
it actually has an incredible nightlife lol
student got out to the different nations, most of are not located in the city center but nightlife definitely exist there
@@corneliawahlin6641 That's great!
Lund is cozy and cute 😂 yes since dawn of humanity
@@computerprogrammingvideosb7743😂😂
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THIIIS
very helpful thank you ❤
Nightlife exists!! The nations have clubs every week! It seems very crazy to me and I'm sad that you missed this :(
Yess that’s what i meant in the video! That the nightlife is mostly within the nations but the city itself does not have clubs (except mejeriet sometimes). Sorry if this was not clear! 🙏🏻
I am so glad that it is pronounced as 'Lun' because in India 'Lund' means penis and when UA-cam algorithm suggested this video, i was rolling on the floor with laughter when I read the title.
North india ma lun he bolte ha
Thanks a lot 🙏
So Nice . Love to study at this University and need your guidance.
Thank you for the information.
I'm planning on studying at lund. What kind of student jobs can he found there? Is it easy to find a job at lund ?
Great explanation about Lund,
May I know about the post doctoral process in Lund University.
I am a PhD holder in Biomedical research, from India.
Good luck 🤞
Thank you for your very helpful information. I am helping my son do research about studying in Europe (Sweden). I am a German citizen, my wife is a US citizen with a Chinese/Vietnamese background and my son is a US and German (EU) citizen. I see Lund as a strong contender because of its location (close to Malmo and Copenhagen; fairly close to Germany) As such, feedback from people who have actually lived and studied there is invaluable (even more so, if it from someone with a diverse background like yours!)
When I look at studying in Sweden, I am particularly fond of the research-focused studying and the student nations. I have to be honest here: I have always seen fraternities as something undesirable, but student nations seem to just focus on the positive aspects.
So, I have two questions:
1. Did you join a student nation while you studied in Lund? And, if you did, which one did you choose and why? I have looked at most of them, but some provide more information than others. My current (likely limited) impression is that Malmo nation is somewhat party-focused (nothing wrong with that!), the East/West Gota nations are less international (perfectly fine, this is Sweden after all!) and Lunds nation is somewhat more balanced. I just love it that they provide services (impressive and well-priced food from an American perspective; great events and night clubs for dancing) for students provided by students. Where were you when I was studying? ;)
2. How much Swedish should one know. Here I always feel that one should make an effort to learn some language regardless if you are just visiting. What about you? Did you learn Swedish before you went or did you just pick up some Swedish while living there?
Thank you for the information your channel provides and for taking the time to read and, maybe, respond to my questions. I do realize that this video is already one year old...
Hi :) Thanks for your comment! to answer your questions:
1. I was part of wermlands nation because i was teaching yoga there. I rarely attended their events, or any nations events though. I enjoyed going to Smalands because it's more alternative! What you choose will be based on your preferences and what kind of events you like to go to. But you can easily visit the nations and talk to the members when you're there.
2. I did not make any efforts to learn Swedish to be honest... I just knew how to say hello/bye and thank you. I knew I was there temporarily and learning a language I'm not passionate about takes a lot of effort for me, so I chose to put my energy in other things :) But i would encourage anyone to learn the local language ofc, you get more out of the 'living abroad' experience.
Take care!
Any Indian here? 😂
😆😆
Thanks at first, nice presentation!
I was kind of explain our student nation lives.. its an old rural heretige!
Nowadays its mostly funny, I was member of Västgöta Nation!
Its this.. one dont need to be a member!
Jonny sins ki university
How many of you ladies here like Lund ?
Hi, thank you for your video. All precious information 😊 I am thinking for a master in lund next year and I feel that it could be a nice place, especially for the sustainability environment that seems to be there. Do you think that finding a job as student could be easy there?
I haven't looked myself but i have a few classmates who have part-time jobs in cafes/restaurants so it's definitely possible!!
Masters in lund?
Very beautiful city
Lund is gorgeous
Name too
Hey! Your video is fab ❤ Which camera did you use to film this video 🙈
Hii thank you! 💕 I used my iphone 11 🥰
oh thank you, that was informative and very helpful. do you know anyone that did or they are doing Masters in Industrial design? i am very interested in applying and moving to Lund
Sorry i dont know anyone in this masters! Good luck ✨
Hi! I’m going to LU on exchange next year. Can I ask whether nations are only for full-time students to join or can exchange students also join? If not, what are the student life activities available for exchange students?
Yes exchange students can join i think!
Lund Lund Lund Lund Lund Lund Lund Lund. The word itself truly defines the greatness of this university ❤.
Bro Sarcastic 😂
💀💀💀💀💀👍👍👍👍👍
Hii, thank you for all the amazing info, we really appreciate it
I'm pretty sure you have to pay to attend... If you're looking for something free, there are many states in Germany that offer free tuition, although I don't know much about it. There should be more resources on youtube!
Its free for EU students but there’s a fee for internationals! 🧡
Lund is best......
God bless this university
hi Romy! im also interested in studying in Lund, based on your experience, was the student life stressful (assignments everywhere everytime), or was it balanced with students' mental health?
Hi :) in my experience, for my program it was pretty balanced! There’s quite a bit of work but it wasn’t overwhelming for me as I would do the bare minimum. Ofc it all depends on your personal goals and your program 🙏🏻
Nice video
Do you think it is an option to get a place in Malmo and go everyday to Lund on the train? Thanks!!!
Absolutely! Many students do that :)
I like your vlogs❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you 🥰
Hi, i’m hoping to move to lund in january, how’s the weather over there around those months?
Its pretty gray and chilly but not too bad :)
Hi Romy. I am working in Lund but I've never studied in Lund so I don't know anything about student life, nations etc. but it seems to be the way to make new friends and socialize here. Is it possible to join without being a student and what would you recommend for someone new to Lund looking to make new friends?
Hi! I don’t think its possible to join a nation if you’re not a student as you need to show a certificate of registration when you sign up! But some nation events dont require a student ID so you would be able to join i think.. most of my friends are actually classmates and my roommates so im not the best person to ask! I would suggest going out, getting involved in sports or other activities and try to meet people there (i met some people at a climbing gym for example)… sorry i cant help more! Good luck 🙏🏻
@@teawithromy Ok thank you! I will try :D
Hello Albin. I noticed you stated that you work in Lund. I just got admitted for a master's program, and very eager to resume. Was hoping to get any guidance on finding work as an international student in Lund.
run!
I want to meet a friend in Lund. Is it best to stay in Malmo and take the train to Lund? From this video it seems Lund is a very chill town.
Hi, sorry for the late response, i must have missed your comment! Staying in Malmo and commuting to Lund is a good idea, if you prefer bigger cities :)
@@teawithromy already booked my hotel in Malmö. Good I made the right choice. Thanks.
Salut. Je suis à Lyon 2. Je compte venir à Lund pour mon erasmus. Est ce que le coût de la vie est plus cher que Lyon ?
Je ne connais pas le coût de la vie a lyon mais je pense que oui, car les prix sont quand meme élevés en suède! Les transports et les courses en particulier
im moving to lund to start my masters this august! are there many french people about?
There are a few french people yes!!
“It doesn’t get that cold, the lowest was like -4”
Me, from Florida: 👀
Nice 👍🥳
Are you from Quebec? I think I recognize the accent.. If so, I’m thinking about doing an exchange to Sweden and i would LOVE to know the perspective from a french-canadian moving to Sweden since french is my first language
I’m from france! But i did my bachelors in montreal :) if you have more specific questions you can always message me on insta! ✨
You forgot the student night life/clubbing (which is prob best in all of sweden) ☀️
nothern lights?;’)
Hey really nice and informative video!
I just wanted to ask, in case if you know about the city Mälardalen? In terms of student life and in comparision to Lund.!
Sorry, I don’t know anything about Mälardalen!
Hi Romy... How to get a scholarship for phd microbiology in lund. Please guide
Hi, i'm sorry but i don't know anything about this! I'm sure you can find a contact from that program on the LU website to help you :)
Hello,I heard from one of our acquaintances that someone who comes to Sweden and completes his master's degree, his income starts at around 40,000 kroner. Do you think this number is correct?
Im sorry I don’t know anything about that, i never worked in Sweden and I have moved already!
I wish I were you, soon tho!😊
Hi, I don't know if you have an answer for me, but I am an exchange student going to Lund for the spring semester of 2023. I am having a lot of trouble finding housing. So, I was wondering if you know anyone who is looking for a tenant. Thank you very much.
Im sorry i dont know anyone who’s renting for the whole semester! (I asked my classmates too). I just know someone who is renting for january/february…
@@teawithromy Perfect, thank you very much for your help! I texted you on instagram (in french) to facilitate communication.

Are there enough part time job opportunities for international students who don't speak Swedish ?
Im sorry for the late answer, i missed your comment! I think priority will be given to swedish speakers for sure, so jobs may be limited. But if u need a part time job, its not hard to find one in a restaurant! I have many friends working in restaurants and bars
@@teawithromy thanks alot ♥️
@@teawithromyhi, how much do you get an hour working at a restaurant?
Awesome ❤️
Hey, thank you for the lovely and informative video :) Do you know anyone who studies Human Ecology in Lund and would be okay with answering some questions i have? That would be fantastic!
Hello! Slightly late response but I just stumbled on your comment as I was watching Romy's videos. I'll be starting the Human Ecology programme in August! I'm not sure if I will be useful for questions (...or if you even still have questions!) but lmk if you'd like to chat!
Fantastic program in an fantastic place 😅
Is it hard to get accepted into the university?
It depends on the program and your grades.. i think it’s a little hard yes
Lund is not called a student stad for nothing (student city)
Is it possible have a part time job while schooling in Lund?
Yes :)
You really lived in lund😂
Saying there is no night life if you are a student is a bit wrong (There are at least one club every night from wednesday till saturday) but fter you graduate it is a bit different!
I meant that there’s no actual nightclub in the city (except mejeriet but its more for concerts i think?) but nations have their own clubs for students! So i agree with you, there’s a nightlife for students within the nations :) thats what i meant in the video, sorry it if wasnt clear
Hey are you still studying in Lund? If so would you like to collab on a video about Lund? Im a travel UA-camr.
Are there a mix of races here…I’m black and I’m really shy about moving here soon
Hi! So i noticed that there’s a lot of international people but not many black people actually… But don’t let that keep you from moving here and having a good time! It’s a very welcoming city for foreigners, no matter where you come from and your skin color ✨
原来博主是在上海生活过的啊
this was so lovely, your editing style and the vibes! greetings from finland 🌱 maybe we will make videos together one day haha 🤍
Hii fellow youtuber!! your channel is really lovely as well 💕 let me know if you ever drop by Lund someday 🥰 and hopefully i will also visit finland at some point haha
Random Q, can I buy your bike if you are selling it in July/August next year? It’s so cute 😭
I wish! But it’s been stolen unfortunately.. :(
@@teawithromy omg no way! :( do you happen to know the name or style of it?
Reddit se??
Me akela nhi hu matlab hehe
Man..this could be the IIT of them Swedes but...such an unfortunate name lol
Not comparable to IITs. It's a random University, students of IITs are hired any creamy employers of the world, but Lund is no where near it.
@@wankmaster69 What the hell you are talking Lund ranking is 87 better than IITs.
What are you saying? It produces Nobel prize winning scientists 😂
Is it difficult to apply for the master program and student visa by myself？I mean no agent.
No the website explains everything really well!
@@teawithromy Thanks. Can’t wait to apply for it next year！！

Do you think a 25 year old student would be out of place in the student social life? I imagine most people are younger
Hi :) i don’t think age matters, its more about what you enjoy and what you’re looking for! I’m 24 and i’ve done student life during my bachelor’s so now, i’m not involved much but that was my choice! If you choose to invest your time and energy in student life, you definitely will meet other students you connect with! Regardless of your age 🌸 also if you’re doing a masters, you’ll be around people your age (the people in my class are between 22 and 30)
Did you like the lund?
Hi, Romy. I'm a Ukrainian refugee. I'm just obtained permission to work and live in Sweden. Furthermore, I would like to ask. Would you recommend Lund University to Ukrainian refugees? Do you know anyone from Ukraine?
Hi! I haven’t met anyone from Ukraine but yes i would recommend the university to anyone! Its a good education
As someone who lives in the Pacific Northwest and is looking to move to Sweden, the weather sounds exactly like the weather here 😂
Only indians can understand 😂😂
Abe lund pakad ke baitha hai kya
-4 is not that cold??? That's colder than my refrigerator💀
I lived in montreal where it’s -20 haha so for me its not very cold 😊 but yeah its definitely subjective!
did you or do you have sinus issues. Your voice !
Hey :)) no i dont/didnt have any issues with my sinus hahaa
Are the programs taught in English
Only some of them are in english!

The name tho 😂
why? 😂
@@belleann it means penïs in hindi/urdu
原来这个小姐姐还是一个混血。我一开始还以为你是中亚的。哈哈哈
everyone likes lund in sweden
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Is there racism tho?
I haven’t felt or experienced it in Lund but there’s racism everywhere anyway 🥲 but lund is super international and swedish people are very friendly so its very nice to live there (in my experience).
Thank you!
@@teawithromyDark sense of humor you have dude only Indian subcontinent people will get 😅
hahaha Lund,, did you know what this mean in indian and Pakistan (Hindi and urdu)🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lund ? seriously 😂😂😂
why beer is so expensive in lund? where can i buy cheaper beers in lund if i go to lund for my master🥲
Yeah i know.. you can get cheap beers if you go to the student nations, they are usually around 30sek!
