Abstract
⺠This is the first European prospective study on weight gain in university students. ⺠We used objective measures of BMI, body composition and waist circumference. ⺠The first semester at university is a critical period for weight and fat gain. ⺠Being male and living in a student residence influence BMI and fat% negatively. ⺠We should promote healthier food choices when eating out-of-home.
