Have you changed your mind or want to take a study break
When you're not going to take our courses
If you decide not to study our courses, it is important that you terminate or remove yourself from the waiting list. This way, we may offer the place to another student and teachers can better plan the teaching.
If you get a long-term sick leave or for some other reason cannot continue your studies, you can apply for an academic leave of absence.
Remove yourself from the waiting list
If you have done a late application and are placed on a course's or programme's waiting list, you can remove yourself from the list via antagning.se.
Terminate a course
If you decide to terminate a course* you are registered on you do that in Ladok for students. It is important that our teachers will know if you will attend to a course or not; and important so that another student can be notified of a possible admission.
If you terminate a course before three weeks have passed since the course started, it will be an early break. You can then apply for the course again.
If you terminate a course later than three weeks after the start of the course, you will not be able to apply for the course again. If you want to resume your studies at a later time, you can contact the department directly and be re-registered if there is an available place.
*Important! If you are waiting to receive a grade for a sub-module in a course, the grade needs to be registered in Ladok before you terminate the course.
Terminate a programme
If you do not intend to continue your programme studies you should submit notification of discontinuation of the programme. If you have discontinued the programme, you cannot continue your studies or complete unfinished courses in the programme. For this reason, it is important not to give notice of discontinuation until the courses from which you are waiting for results have reported results and are completed.
If you later wish to resume your studies, you must make a new application for a place in the programme.
The discontinuation will take effect from the date on which you submitted the notification. This means that you will not be able to complete courses you have started.
You download the e-form Notification of discontinuation and follow the instructions.
