Popis: Every year approximately a thousand of exchange students arrive to Växjö looking for improving their university experience. The main problem is that this amount of people is very difficult to handle and organize. Sometimes, students don’t have enough support, missing important information, missing interesting events and so on. In consequence, the students can develop a bad feeling about the university organization giving a bad feedback to the future potential incoming students. This is a bad aspect to Linnaeus University because it is losing future students. In order to solve the problem, different surveys have been done to the international students, and even to the Växjö International Students (VIS) organization. The findings from these surveys are very interesting, and it is possible to identify and group different problems in order to make the solution easier. Furthermore, a good solution is found, improving the situation we were before. The solution found will fit in the hand of each student and will bring us in a better situation for the university and their students.
