After a poor ranking in the 2010 International Student Barometer, Uppsala University in Sweden revamped its approach to welcoming international students. By 2023, we had introduced initiatives including an airport meet and greet desk, shuttle services and a dedicated welcome centre. We improved our support by coordinating with various stakeholders and employing student hosts, and we are eager to share our effective strategies in this poster session.
