New student - information about student IT account

As a new student at SLU you can access your account after you have been admitted and transfered to the study documentation system Ladok. You can therefore activate your student account no earlier than the last week of July for the autumn semester and no earlier than the last week of December for the spring semester.

If you submit a late application then it will be processed based on its time of arrival resulting in a varying admission date. 

Once the transfer has taken place, there is a delay of at least one hour before the account is created and you can confirm your account.

Students without a Swedish civic registration number

If you do not have a Swedish personal ID number you can use eduID when activating your SLU account.

If you do not have an eduID account you will need to contact the IT-Servicedesk to activate your account. You can do this in person at one of our main campuses, or you can call our IT-Servicedesk and arrange to do the activation via videolink.  In both cases, please have your ID documents and admission decision with you, ready to present.

Students with a Swedish civic registration number
