Admission and registration
As a new student, the first step is to activate your student account. After that, you must register for the course or programme you are going to attend. Otherwise, you may lose your place.
Conditional admission: If you are conditionally admitted, you have to show that you meet the admission requirements before you can register.
If you are on a waiting list: If you are on a waiting list, you have to be offered a place before you can register.
Withdrawing your admission: If you have accepted your place but are no longer interested in it, it is important to let us know you won't be attending that course or programme. If you don't wish to keep your place and are not yet registered, you should decline your offer on Universityadmissions.se.
If you've registered for the course but decide you no longer wish to attend, you must contact the department providing the course to withdraw.
Deferral of studies: If you are admitted to the University but are unable to begin at the time the course or programme is scheduled to begin, you can apply for deferral of studies. This means that you apply to postpone the commencement of your studies.
Fees: If you are a fee paying student, you will receive an invoice for the tuition fee in Ladok before each semester.
