Oh that's cool Yeah I'm really enjoying it, I think we have a nice atmosphere and working condition in Lund Ok looks like I'll have to get it sent from the US somehow. Thanks for the tip, good to know that money orders are definitely out (saves me visiting several more banks in vain). Good luck for your Masters application!

Hi, I'm an Australian studying for a PhD in Economics in Lund. I'm applying to the US as a visiting PhD student, and wondering if anyone has any tip for sending money to the US? The US school wants a check/international money order addressed to that university and sent together with the rest of my paper application, and checks don't seem to be very common in Sweden (eg the Western Union office could only do transfers to a US account number, and cannot just produce a check addressed to the university). Thanks in advance!
