1. Why did you choose SSE?
SSE is a highly ranked university, especially in the field of Finance. I found out that the MSc program in Finance is very hands-on and offers students a high degree of freedom: be it regarding the exchange programs, career coaching, internship opportunities or elective courses. It is very focused on practical matters rather than theoretical studies which was a very nice change with regards to my previous Bachelor studies.
2. What is it like to study in Stockholm?
Stockholm is very beautiful and I had such a nice experience here so far. I discovered the city center, the parks in the city and even the biggest IKEA store in the world. People are super friendly and almost everyone is fluent in English. Since the life is a bit more expensive in a bigger city than elsewhere, I recommend you to get in touch with older students as they can help you find cheap coffee and food downtown.
3. What tips do you have for prospective students?
There is something for everyone, regardless of whether you are a party animal or want some professional experience. In any case you will learn a lot, and most importantly, you will get to know awesome people. Everyone is very approachable, from your classmates to professors, from seniors in your course to all the people at SASSE. Get in touch with them, get to know them, and get all the tips and tricks of how to enjoy SSE in the best possible way!
