Dear math student,
Here is some important information about things like registering for courses, signing up for exams, and examination and grading.
Register for courses in Ladok:
When
you are admitted to a course, you have to register for the course in Ladok in order to:
- keep your place on the course
- get grades reported on the
course
- sign up for the exam
- receive study grants from CSN.
You can check if you are registered for the course in Ladok. If the course shows up under “current” (sv. “aktuella”) then the registration is complete.
Note that Ladok and the course webpages (kurshemsida) are not linked. Even if you are activated/enrolled to the course webpage you still need to register for the course in Ladok.
The last day to register for most courses that start in January is on Sunday February 5. (NOTE! If the course is given in collaboration with KTH, double check the date yourself in Ladok). If you have problem with the registration, please contact us in time before the web registration closes in Ladok.
If
you have previously been registered for the course but did not complete it, you
need to be re-registered for
the course to be able to sign up for the exam/re-exam. Please contact us
at studentexpedition@math.su.se with
your name, birthdate/personal identification number and course code if you need
a re-registration on the course.
Signing up for exams (note: 10 days):
To
participate in a written exam on campus, you have to sign up for the exam
in Ladok.
You can sign up starting from about a month before the exam date and the deadline is 23:59 10 days before
the exam. Example: if the exam is on
the March 23, the period when you can sign up for the exam ends on March 13.
Note that we cannot sign you up for the exam after the deadline. If you have failed to sign up in time for the exam, you will have to sign up for the next upcoming exam date.
If you have signed up for the exam in advance but realise at a later date that you will not write the exam, we ask you to de-register for the exam (avanmäla) in Ladok.
Examination and grading:
It is important that you are aware of the rules and regulations for the particular course you are currently enrolled in. Please remember that:
• At Stockholm University you cannot re-take an exam or redo assignments where you already have a passing grade, in order to improve your grade.
• If you hand in empty/blank examination a failing grade will be reported.
You can read more about examination rules here: During your studies
Course evaluations:
Course
evaluations are an important tool for us to find out what you students think
about our courses. When the course is finished you will get an evaluation to
fill out.
You can find previous course evaluations here: Course evaluations at the Department of Mathematics.
Keep your email address updated:
When you activate your university account you add your email address. This address is connected to your SU email address (your university account user id followed by student@su.se). This is the address that the University uses to contact you during your studies. Make sure you keep your address up to date so you won’t miss relevant information. You can read more about this at the university’s webpage: https://www.su.se/english/education/it-for-students/digital-tools-and-services
