Besides the famous Collège de Sorbonne, other "collegia" provided housing and meals to students, sometimes for those of the same geographical origin in a more restricted sense than that represented by the nations. There were 8 or 9 "collegia" for foreign students: the oldest one was the Danish college, the "Collegium danicum" or "dacicum", founded in 1257. Swedish students could, during the 13th and 14th centuries, live in one of three Swedish colleges, the "Collegium Upsaliense", the "Collegium Scarense" or the "Collegium Lincopense", named after the Swedish dioceses of Uppsala, Skara and Linköping.
