Before the start of the semester

• Find a place to live in Jönköping. But don´t fear if you haven´t find anything by the beggning of the semester. Check out the "Accomodation guide" for more information.
• Learn about all the benefits you get for being a member of Jönköping Student Union.

Your first day on campus

As soon as you have confirmed your place at Jönköping University, you'll receive a notice to attend a roll call/introduction where you will receive information about your course/program. 

The first few weeks

Your first few weeks are ideally spent exploring campus and all the things it offers. Why not join an association. You can read more about all our associations on our webpage.

Also, don't forget to pay your Student Union membership fee, as it is compulsory to do so at Jönköping University. 

VETERAN STUDENT

Once you have studied for a while, you've probably had time to familiarize yourself with the life of a student at JU. You know what the Student Union does and which student association you belong to. 

However, even a veteran student may find it useful to refresh their memory and take on new challenges. 

Hopefully, you've found the perfect study technique, which should leave you with more time for recreational activities. Why not use it to spice up your CV by joining an association, or working for your Student Association or the Student Union? Creating value for your fellow students is worthwhile, both in itself and because it is an awesome experience that may help you find your dream job later on. 

As a veteran on campus, you've probably taken a number of courses and exams. Perhaps you've run across some as yet undiscovered flaws in the system, or have questions now that you didn't then? Contact the the Student Union to gain assistance in finding answers to questions related to your education.
