Cost way more to live in Europe. For example, we'll use the best metric for students: Cost of beer

Cost of beer in sweden= ~4-5 euros, with the current exchange rate that's 6-8 dollars. (pint of beer in new york city was around 7CDN last time i was there)

+1 for not a good indicator.

"Premium" branded beer in Germany, France, Spain, etc. is like 0.50-1.5 euros/each (store bought) and 1-3.5 euros MAX/each (from ~95% of restaurants/bars/clubs throughout most parts of Europe).

Bump!

Just got my acceptance email yesterday! I'll be studying Sustainable Urban Management @ Malmö University (my 2nd choice). Wife got into her program in Kristianstad too. I was shortlisted for my first choice too. Also, my undergrad is a degree from MRC/MRU - I didn't think it would count as they aren't on the UN list of higher education institutes, but it did and I'm in!

I'm super pumped - I can't wait to go, but it means selling my cay, renting our house, etc... I'll keep things posted as we get closer to moving.
