Living expenses vary depending on personal needs. However an estimated cost of living per month for a student in Sweden could be: Food 2500 Krona. Well it is a hard language to learn. Danish is much easier to learn. That my personal view.

You can live somewhat tightly, but reasonably and securely on about 7,000 kronor a month. I'd be nervous if I had less than this. 10,000 kronor a month will be very comfortable. Bear in mind that you will need to be medically insured, as you will not have access to their social services unless you have a European Union passport.

7000

an university student will automatically get 2500 kronas every month(if you're a swedish citizen) and can borrow money from (CSN) up to 4500 kronas each month. a student room in sweden will cost you around 2000 kronas, but it depends on the size of the rooz and how many you are going to be in that room. food?! it depends on how much you wanna eat, u get a pizza for 50-60 kronas. so i'd say if you live 'normal' and don't spend much money you'll pay around 2500-3000 kronas for food every month. if you can speak swedish you wont have any problems, but if you can't speak english you have to attend some swedish(language) classes first(unless you start in a English-teaching university). if you speak english well now, you'll learn swedish in 6-12 months. check www.studera.nu and www.csn.se
