The student accommodation is in an area called Ryd, which is a suburb of Linköping. With its own town centre offering practically all the services you might need, Ryd almost feels like a town in its own right. It is also located close to campus Valla, where the classes are held.
LiU Summer Academy students can access the laundry rooms and recycling facilities, a beach volleyball court, tennis courts, outdoor gym and barbecue spots. For exercise and fresh air, you have the adjacent Ryd forest (Rydskogen) and there is also an excellent golf and disc course close to LiU.
