User account

Your user account consists of a username and a password and allows you to access Ladok, Canvas, campus computers and library databases. The password for the user account must be changed once a year.

Collect your user account online

To collect your user account, you need to verify your identity. You can chose between three different methods: universityadmissions.se (antagning.se), Edu-id or via e-mail. If you have a temporary Swedish personal number you can only create your user account via e-mail.

The password must contain at least 8 characters and consist of at least one lower case letter, at least one upper case letter and at least one digit.
The password must not contain spaces, ", `, ' <, >, ½, å, ä or ö.

Please note that it may take up to 15 minutes before you have access to all systems.

Choose verification method

Edu-id

Edu-id allows you to verify your identity using your mobile phone or a verification code sent to the address where you are registered. This method requires you to have a Swedish personal ID number. Edu-id is a national service that ensures your identity in a similar way to Bank-id.

If you want to verify your identity via e-mail you fill in your personal ID number and then you will get a weblink sent to your e-mail address. Follow the link in order to choose a password for your user account.
