Welcome Activities
Join our welcome activities for spring semester 2026!
These activities are designed to assist you as a new student and introduce you to university life in Stockholm and Sweden. Attendance is optional, but we highly recommend attending in order for you to familiarise yourself with campus and the support available for students, as well as to make friends!
Arrival Service
The Arrival Service is the first of our welcome activities, where we receive new international students at Arlanda Airport and on Campus Frescati. You are very welcome to attend Arrival Service on campus even if you arrive in Stockholm on a different day!
Read testimonies from new students of the Arrival Service for autumn semester 2025.
Welcome Day
The Welcome Day is filled with activities such as speed friending, mini lectures, a library introduction, and more. You will receive useful tips for a smooth start to the new semester and get to know other new students, both national and international.
