If you are not planning on living in expensive student apartments, don't smoke and buy your alcohol either from cheap student bars or Systembolaget rather than clubs you can probably get by on 350-400 euros. It's a lot about rent though, afaik the standard student apartments in Lund are 400-500 euros monthly so if you need to take one of those then expenses skyrocket ~~. Take the time to find a ´real´ apartment in the outskirts of the town and you can probably more than half the rent.

Well, yeah I could probably lower my monthly expenses by a lot, if I by cheaper food/eat out less. The rent isn't that bad though. I live in a student corridor and I pay ~350€ a month but it is free during june, july and august so really it is only 350*9/12 € . The cheapest way to live though, is to share a big appartment with some other students.
