Arrival and Orientation
Your exchange semester at Örebro University starts with arrival day(s) and continues with a one-of-a-kind 3 or 5 week long "Orientation Programme" (depending on the autumn or spring semester). During the orientation programme we offer a variety of activities, all designed to make the adjustment to Örebro and Sweden as smooth as possible.
Arrival days
During the arrival days, new exchange students are greeted on campus by the International Office and Nexus, our international student section at Örebro University. During these days, you collect the keys to your accommodation from our housing office and are guided there by the Nexus "fadders" (aka buddies). You will also meet the International office for a mandatory ID-check.
Arriving before or after the arrival day(s)
- If you arrive before or after the arrival day(s), please specify when in the arrival form. If you arrive on the weekend, outside office hours, or before the official arrival day(s), then you will need to arrange your own stay before getting access to the student accommodation.
- If you plan to arrive after the start of the semester, please contact the international office. This is very important as late arrival might mean you are not allowed to start the courses you have been accepted for.
