About this event
How do ensure your students are truly ready to start are your University?
International students arriving in the Nordics face more than just a change in climate, they’re entering entirely new social, academic, and cultural worlds. What role do pre-arrival connections play in helping them thrive?
In this special Goin’ Live session, we’re bringing together some of Sweden’s leading international education professionals to explore how a stronger sense of community, created before arrival, can reduce student anxiety, strengthen integration, and drive long-term success.
From Stockholm, Lund, and Solna, we’ll share insights from Goin’ communities across the country, showing how students are building genuine friendships, receiving student-led support, and arriving feeling ready and reassured.
What to expect:
✅ How Swedish universities used Goin’ to support engagement and reduce loneliness
✅ Insights into improving student well-being, integration, and retention
