SSCO
- Stockholm Federation of Student Unions


Stockholm Federation of Student Unions, SSCO, is an organisation for cooperation between student unions in the Stockholm region. With more than 50 members, SSCO represents around 80,000 students.
Founded in 1896, the organisation’s original focus was to provide services to the students in Stockholm. Since then SSCO has moved towards working as a lobby organisation, and today the main focus of SSCO is to influence politicians on the local, regional, and national levels. SSCO continues its work towards officials in all levels of government, aiming to improve the situation of the students in Stockholm and to strengthen Stockholm as a leading region for education in Sweden. By bringing student-related issues to the attention of politicians and other policy makers and by promoting existing collaborations, SSCO aims to secure students’ long-term influence in the region.

Studentpalatset
To provide a meeting place for students in Stockholm, SSCO runs Studentpalatset. Studentpalatset is situated at Norrtullsgatan 2 by Odenplan, in the city centre of Stockholm, and within walking distance from all inner city universities. Studentpalatset offers a calm and comfortable environment to study in. If you are a student at Stockholm University, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Karolinska Institutet, or the Stockholm School of Economics you have access to Studentpalatset every day of the week. If there is room, other students can get a day-pass for passage in and out that day. Södertörn University College and Naprapathögskolan have chosen not to be a part of the Studentpalatset collaboration, so students at those institutions do not have access to the facilities.

Opening hours
Weekdays 8.30-22.30
Weekends 9.00-19.00

rize banquet
