Welcome to SLU! On this page, you will find information about the orientation programme and roll-call day. We kindly ask you to check this page regularly for important updates.
The orientation programme - 25-29 August 2025
During the orientation programme, you will receive valuable information about Sweden and studying at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. The programme is designed for international master's and bachelor's students, as well as exchange students. While attendance is not compulsory, we strongly recommend that you take part, as it provides essential insights into studying in Sweden, along with the opportunity to meet fellow students and enjoy some fun activities.
The orientation programme will be organised partly online and partly on campus.
The roll-call day - 1 September 2025
If you have been admitted to a master's programme or the bachelor programme Forest and landscape the first day of the semester is 1 September. The roll-call day starts with a joint welcome ceremony for programme students and programme-specific roll-calls.
Attending roll-call day is compulsory for all newly admitted programme students. Compulsory attendance at digital roll-calls applies to students admitted to distance learning programmes.
Exceptions are possible if a student has special reasons for not attending.
