Important things to consider when booking exam seats
When booking an exam, including a take-home exam, fill out the preferred exam date, exam type, the number of hours the exam will last, and the number of students that are expected to attend. All bookings recieve a prefix that is then to be used when creating the matching activity session in Ladok.
The mandatory exam information sheet must be filled out for each exam, including those at the exam centre at Klostergatan. The current version of the mandatory exam information sheet can always be found on this webpage, to the right. Please do not use old versions.
If transportation has been ordered for the exam: the exam itself, including the mandatory exam information sheet, must be packaged, addressed to the correct exam venue, and delivered at the selected exam depot (service center) no later than by noon the working day before the exam date.
Students who are to take an exam but are not in Ladok must be re-registered in Ladok by the department!

Examination accommodations
Students who have been granted examination accommodations, such as extended writing time, a separate room, or the use of a computer, may sit their examinations at the Examination Centre at Klostergatan 3.
The Examination Centre consists of two smaller open examination areas and several individual rooms with different furnishing, enabling us to provide the accommodations the students are recommended.
On rare occasions, the facilities at Klostergatan may reach full capacity. In such cases, students may instead be assigned a place in Examination Hall 2 at Fyrislundsgatan 80, which is used as an alternative venue.
Information on the regulations governing exam accommodations
It is the responsibility of the department to inform students if they will be sitting their examination in a different venue from the other examinees.
We understand that some students may wish to familiarise themselves with the Examination Centre before their examination. We are happy to assist with arranging a visit - please contact the Exam Coordination Office.
