Lund is a small, charming, medieval, pedestrian and bike friendly city, that is home to roughly 110,000 inhabitants. It is an old city, dating back to 990 A.D. but as with much of Sweden urban areas blend the historical with the modern with respect to architecture, transportation, culture, and overall living amenities. It, however, is quite international with 130 different nationalities calling Lund home. The university itself sits in the center of the city.
Cost of living varies widely by location. Be sure to consult a variety of resources when researching cost of living.
Housing
You are responsible for finding your own housing, but Lund University assists students with this process. The university buildings are spread across the city and housing options are available in many different neighborhoods of the city. Typically the housing is a private resident hall or apartment, with small kitchens either in the room or shared with a floor. More information can be foundon the Lund University Housing website.
Students should anticipate a commute to campus, either by bus, bike, or walking.
Program Considerations
In a physical sense, the on-site experience may be very different from life on the UW campus. You may walk or take public transportation more than you are used to in Madison. The physical activity level will vary by program, but in general you should be prepared for extended periods of time walking, potentially on uneven terrain.
For many students, discovering and experiencing new foods is a part of the experience. It is important to consider any dietary restrictions, whether they are due to health conditions, religious beliefs, or individual needs, and look into whether you can get the foods you need locally.
How you identify yourself in Madison may differ from how people will view you on-site. Consider exploring our Identity Resources to reflect on how your identities may impact your experience. Students with disabilities should keep in mind that attitudes and laws related to disabilities vary by country, and these differences may impact the level of accommodation available in a particular location. More details are available on our page on Study Abroad for Students with Disabilities.
We encourage you to contact your Study Abroad Advisor and share your accommodation needs with us as early as possible. This will allow us to help you explore your options in advance.
Excursions and Activities
The Lund University International Office organizes a two-week orientation to provide exchange students with information on various aspects of the university. The weeks are filled with activities, fairs, excursions, tours and seminars.
While on campus, students can participate in Studentlund, the university's student group, which is divided into various student committees, sports and outdoor adventure, art and music, as well as cultural and social activities.
Lund has a magnificent old town to visit as well as a lively arts and culinary scene. The city is very green and in Lund's close surroundings there are 28 natural reserves and many more parks and gardens to explore. With it's central location, it is a great jumping off point for the rest of Europe as well!
On-Site Support
Lund Central International Office staff assists students on the program.
Orientation
IAP expects you to be an active participant in preparing yourself for your study abroad experience. As a participant on an IAP program, you will receive a pre-departure orientation, either in-person or online. The type and format of this orientation will vary by program and will be provided to you upon acceptance to the program.
You will also receive an on-site orientation upon arrival in Lund.
Visa
U.S. citizens must have a U.S. passport valid for at least six months beyond the end of the program. If you do not already have a passport, apply for one immediately. You must have a valid passport to apply for your required student residence permit.
You will apply for your own residence permit. Study abroad staff will provide you with information. Non U.S. Passport holders may have different requirements. Ask your Study Abroad Advisor, if you have any questions.
You may incur additional fees to expedite a residence permit application or to re-apply if your original application is rejected for any reason. You may also incur additional fees if your permit is delayed and you need to change your flight departure date.
Getting to Your Program
You are responsible for making your own travel arrangements. You should purchase a plane ticket only after your program dates are confirmed and after your acceptance is fully confirmed by UW Study Abroad and/or the host institution.
Insurance
You will be enrolled in the UW System required health insurance through Cultural Insurance Services International (CISI) and the cost of the insurance coverage is included in program fees.
If you are a citizen of a country other than the United States and will remain/study in, or travel to your country of record (the location of your permanent residence), the insurance provided for you is the same as the “study away” insurance provided to U.S. citizens studying on domestic U.S. programs. You may want to explore alternative or additional international health and medical insurance that will cover your needs both while in and during any period of transit to/from your country of record. This may include participation in a national healthcare plan or coverage provided under a personal healthcare plan in your country of record. If you have questions about the coverage of the “study away” plan, please speak with your Study Abroad Advisor.
All other students participating on an international program will automatically be enrolled in Cultural Insurance Services International (CISI), the university's international health, medical and repatriation insurance policy.
Program cost information includes program fees, as well as out-of-pocket expenses with notes to help explain costs. Program fees are estimated and can be adjusted at any time. Once accepted, you will receive a cost sheet that includes confirmed program fees and additional out-of-pocket expenses. "The IAP Program Fee" and all processes and policies stated on this cost sheet apply to all participants on programs managed by International Academic Programs (IAP) and in partnership with the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, the College of Engineering, and Wisconsin School of Business. All students participating on approved programs are all eligible to apply for scholarships administered through IAP when they meet the scholarship eligibility and selection criteria.
UW–Madison students can typically use their financial aid on UW–Madison study abroad, domestic study away, and international internship programs. You need to complete a FAFSA if you want to be eligible to receive federal and state financial aid.
Beginning in 2026-27, the Office of Student Financial Aid will require all incoming undergraduate students to submit a CSS profile.

Bryan possessed the ability to extract the energy of a city through the exploration of its music, nightlife, and food allowing him to fully integrate himself within his environment and it’s culture. Bryan understood the value of knowledge gained from experiences and social interactions, rather than just in a classroom. We hope the recipient of this scholarship shares his devotion to balancing hard work with an unrelenting desire to explore, discover, and enjoy every moment in their new city.
