About

<h3>on-campus accommodation:</h3>

Like many cities, there is a shortage of&nbsp;housing&nbsp;in Uppsala, a problem that has existed for many years. Both native Swedes and foreign students are finding it difficult to find accommodation when first enrolling into the university.&nbsp;This problem is however not as bad as it was with several major housing construction projects having been completed after 2010.

There has never been a custom in Sweden for universities to arrange housing for students universities are not allowed by law to own housing. Students are expected to arrange their living accommodations on the private market. To make it easier for students to find moderately priced housing, special student rooms and student apartments have been built by the student nations and student unions. However, the student housing is insufficient to accommodate all students. About 40,000 students are eligible to live in the 11,000 available rooms and apartments.&nbsp;Because of the low rent in these apartments and the general lack of housing in Uppsala, the student apartments are highly attractive and many try to hold on to the contracts as long as possible even after graduating.

<h3>off-campus accommodation:</h3>

&nbsp;

<ul>
	<li>Some of the most popular housing accommodations for the students are Flogsta, Kantorsgatan, Studentstaden, Studentv&auml;gen, Klostergatan, Rackarbergsgatan, and many more.</li>
	<li>Flogsta is one of the biggest and most popular housing choices for international students.</li>
</ul>

Accommodation

<ul>
	<li>Georg Stiernhielm&nbsp;(1598&ndash;1672) -&nbsp;is often called the father of Swedish poetry.</li>
	<li>&nbsp;Carl Michael Bellman&nbsp;(1740&ndash;1795) -&nbsp;The poet and song composer&nbsp;</li>
	<li>&nbsp;Erik Gustaf Geijer&nbsp;(1783&ndash;1847) -&nbsp;The writer, historian, and composer</li>
</ul>

Alumni

<ul>
	<li>The buildings and locations where the university has activities or which are significantly connected to its history are listed below. Some of the historic buildings in central Uppsala have had to be retired, as their protected status has made it impossible to make modifications necessary to meet requirements to adjust to the needs of students with disabilities.</li>
	<li>
	Ekonomikum&nbsp;is a&nbsp;building&nbsp;that is part of Uppsala University. The building,&nbsp;designed&nbsp;by&nbsp;Swedish&nbsp;modernist&nbsp;architect&nbsp;Peter Celsing, was completed in 1976 and housed departments for languages, humanities, and social sciences.

	Since the early 2000s, Ekonomikum is a multidisciplinary center specializing in&nbsp;economics&nbsp;and&nbsp;financial&nbsp;studies,&nbsp;information science, and&nbsp;human geography. It has approximately 2,500 students and 500 faculty and staff members, a library, a KPH print shop, a restaurant, and several&nbsp;students&#39; associations.
	</li>
</ul>

	<li>Uppsala University has signed student exchange agreements with about 400 universities across all parts of the world.&nbsp;It takes part in the&nbsp;Erasmus program&nbsp;and the Nordplus program.</li>
	<li>It also benefits from its membership of the&nbsp;Coimbra Group&nbsp;of universities.</li>
	<li>The average earning of the alumni of the university is&nbsp;$205,000.</li>
</ul>

Conclusion

<ul>
	<li>Loans are disbursed twice per academic year, at the start of each semester. In accordance with Federal Student Aid regulations, students will be reminded that the disbursement is due at least 14 days before the disbursement date and will be given an opportunity to cancel or reduce disbursements.</li>
	<li>Financial aid is also available through FAFSA.</li>
</ul>

Financial Aid

There are trains to the south,&nbsp;Arlanda,&nbsp;Stockholm, and&nbsp;Link&ouml;ping, to the northwest,&nbsp;Dalarna, and&nbsp;Sala, and the north&nbsp;G&auml;vle,&nbsp;Sundsvall,&nbsp;&Ouml;stersund, and the northern half of Sweden as well as sleeper trains to&nbsp;Narvik&nbsp;in Norway.</li>
	<li>Public transport buses and trains within Uppsala county are operated by&nbsp;UL.</li>
	<li>The large student population makes the city a target for car and house break-ins, but&nbsp;Uppsala is considered a very safe place late at night&nbsp;compared to many other places around the world.&nbsp;</li>
