Orientation programme
The orientation programme for exchange students takes place during the week before the start of courses and is an introduction to Karlstad University’s student life.
Karlstad University arranges orientation days for exchange students with an introduction to Sweden, Karlstad and the university. Students should make sure that they arrive in time for the start of the orientation programme in order to receive useful information.
The orientation programme includes practical information as well as social activities and tours (activities can vary depending on the season). All exchange students are welcome to join the activities.

Have you been admitted to studies next semester as an International student (Free mover)? If so, you are most welcome to take part in the orientation programme. For our planning we need to know you are coming, so please send an e-mail to exchange@kau.se with your full name and application number, at least two weeks prior to the start of the semester, to join the orientation programme. Please note that the content of the orientation programme is mainly aimed at students attending an exchange programme.
