I'm still wondering if I should apply 2 the Uni in SE. The fact that it's SE alone scare me. I've lived and studied in EU and US. But because the scandinavian countries are really unknown to me I dont know what to expect. who can fill me in?

And also: how does SE deals with people of a different race. In the US for example I had some trouble to fit in sometimes because i'm coloured.

@summwerbrizz08 Well it's of course difficult to give a general idea of Sweden and how you'd perceive it. But I guess it is a good start to look at some of the videos here, and checking out the websites Sweden.se and Studyinsweden.se. You can also get in touch with internationals students in Sweden at SwedenInTouch.se.

ive got sweden nationality but i finished high school in america, can i still apply?

[swedense]

@biankitalin Yes. You will be in a different application group (since you don't have Swedish grades), but applicants from all countries are welcome.

i want to study in sweden; im from chile, but i hear that the chilean comunity ther is big and doesen`t have the best reputation, could be a problem with that ?

I am attracted to the academic side of both Swedish universities and institutions because I see Sweden as being among the best on the global stage - in accordance to (Times Higher Education World Rankings) and similar natural and lifestyle environments I think I could easily adapt to. However, I am unsure if the criterias for (international students) for graduates will be recognized or aligned to Swedish academic learning because my university may not be listed as high globally?

I have unrealistic aspirations to study here XD.
