FAQ

Admission

You apply to the courses at Antagning.se/University Admissions. The Department of Theology is not involved in the admission process. Find some of the frequently asked questions at universityadmission.se here.

Registration

It is important that you follow the instructions of your application letter and register on the course or programme that you have been admitted to. If not, there is a risk that you will lose your place. The registration period can vary between courses. It is your responsibility as a student to check the registration period for your course. You can find information regarding registration at Ladok.

If you are not able to register yourself, it is important that you as soon as possible contact the student administration student@teol.uu.se.

Admitted with conditions

If you are admitted with conditions, you can not register yourself online. To be registered you must contact us at student@teol.uu.se. If we confirm that you meet the conditions, we will register you.

If a bachelor's degree is needed to be admitted, you must have already applied for your diploma. If you do not recieve your diploma before the start of the course, you can send us a confirmation that you have applied for your degree and that you meet the requirements.

Admission as a reserve

We usually know if we can admit reserves the week before the course/programme starts. This is due to the fact that the admitted students have until the week before to register in order to take their place. If we are able to admitt you, we will send you an email. Nota bene! Do not forget to check your spam folder in case you have received an email from the administration.

Application for courses and programmes

Regardless of whether you study a programme or a freestanding course you have to always apply for the next semesters courses via antagning.se/universityadmissions.se. Regular applications periods are between mid-March to mid-April for the Autumn semester and mid-September to mid-October for the Spring semester.

Course not found at antagning.se/universityadmissions.se

If you study a programme, you will not be able to find your courses at antagning.se/universityadmissions.se if you are not logged in with your student account. Keep in mind that not all courses are available every semester.

Late admissions

The application for late admissions opens when the regular admissions process is over, in July and December. When you have applied for a late admission your case is at the admissions office at Uppsala University. We at the department receive the news of newly admitted students at the same time as the students. We do not have any more information beforehand. If you have questions regarding late application contact the admissions office at antagning@uu.se.

If you are admitted after the web registration has closed, contact the administration to register. Late applications are ranked according to dates, which makes it first come first served. Nota bene! Do not forget to check your spam folder in case you have received an email from the administration.

De-registration

If you have changed you mind and no longer want to take the course or programme you have registered, you can discontinue your participation (de-register) on the course or programme. Your place can then go to someone else.

If you de-register within three weeks from the course started, you can apply for the course again at antagning.se/universityadmission.se.

Re-registration

If you have dropped a course later than three weeks from when it started it is considered a late break and you cannot apply for the course again at antagning.se/universityadmissions.se. You need to apply for re-registration when the semester is approaching, you do so at the Department of Theology’s webpage regarding re-registration. Re-registration is subject to availability. Therefore we will not be able to notify you regarding the status of your re-registration application until newly admitted students and reserves are registered.

Academic leave of absence

If you are a programme student and are temporarily prevented to continue your studies, you can apply for a leave from the programme, read more at the student webpage regarding academic leave of abscence. You can not apply for a leave of abscence for freestanding courses.

Syllabus and course literature

In the syllabus you can find information such as the course content, learning outcomes, instructions, assessments as well as the course literature. You can search for the syllabus here:

Link to webpage with syllabuses

All the course literature is available at book stores and online stores and available to borrow at Uppsala University libraries such as the Karin Boye library as well as Carolina Rediviva. In some cases you can find your literature at the nation’s library. The compendiums that are a part of the course literature are uploaded on Studium. It is very important that you find the literature before the course starts due to the high demand of books in classes with many students.

If you have other questions regarding the course structure, contact the main teacher on the course. You can find who that is in Studium. If you can not find your course in Studium it is probably not published yet. Wait a bit further or contact student@teol.uu.se.
