Admission and registration
Here you can find information on admission and registration to courses at the Department of Linguistics and Philology.
Admission
You need to be admitted and registered to a course to be able to participate in it. To most of our courses (some programme courses excepted) you make your application on universityadmissions.se (english results only) or antagning.se (site in Swedish).
Registration in Ladok or through a roll-call?
Please note that not all our courses have registration through Ladok.
If the course starts at the beginning of the semester and has registration in Ladok you need to register before midnight on August 31st to not risk losing your spot.
If the course har registration at the first class (roll call) you need to attend that class to not risk losing your spot, or contact the teacher before class if you are unable to attend.
Roll-call registration fall 2024
The following courses has registration through a roll call at the first class. That means that you can not register to them in Ladok, but instead have to attend the first class or contact the teacher to be registered.
You can find out who the teacher is on the course page in Studium (available for admitted students up to two weeks after the start of the course).
The list will be updated before registration starts.

Conditionally admitted
If you are admitted with conditions you can't register. You need to contact the department and show that you fulfill all prerequisite requirements before we can register you.
If you don't fulfill all requirements before the course starts you may lose your spot. If you are waiting for credits that will make you eligible we can take that into consideration, but we will still not be able to register you until all conditions are met.
Waiting list
If you are placed on a waiting list you can't register. You need to wait for an email from us that confirms your admission. The email will also tell you how to register.
We will contact you on the email address listed on your application. Please make sure the address is up to date.
Please note that not all who are on a waiting list will be admitted. We accept waiting students in order until the course is full or it is too late to start studying.
Re-registration
If you alreade have been registered to a course (and not withdrawn withn 3 weeks), you can't be admitted to that course again. You can only be re-registered, and that only if there is room for you. That means that we have to offer a spot to all newly admitted students, including those on the waiting list, before we can re-register you.
Our policy is to, when possible, offer one (1) chance to re-register. We only make multiple re-registrations to the same course if the student has particular reasons (medical, social, or other) for not passing the course on the first two attempts.
