Oops
I forgot, there was a Sweden development:
You may recall that I had to re-send my housing application into the school. Well, I did, requesting any of the 3 closest buildings--all within 1000 meters of the school. Here's the reply I got:
Hi!
Since there are many students coming to Karlskrona this year all our usual student housing is occupied and we can only offer a special housing for you. This is the only offer we have to give, if you refuse it you will have to find housing on your own.
The housing we can offer is an apartment shared by two students, at a rent of approximately SEK 2700 per month per student including electricity. The rooms are furnished. If you want access to internet you must pay for this your self and the cost is approximately SEK 300 per month. The apartment is located 5 km from the university and 7 km from the city center. Buses to the university and the city center are available several times per hour.
I have booked one of this rooms for you and it will be available when you arrive, your address will
Kungsmarksvägen 65
371 44 Karlskrona
So I get housing, but it's FREAKISHLY far away. I will be walking over 3 miles to get back and forth from the school. Or taking the bus, I suppose, when the weather gets really cold. Guess I should pick up some additional walking boots when I get there.
