Semester/Term dates

The academic year at Stockholm University starts in late August and ends in early June. The academic year is divided into two semesters, an autumn semester and a spring semester. The autumn semester starts at the end of August and continues until mid-January of the following year. The spring semester starts in January and finishes in the beginning of June.

Official Public Holidays and Half Holidays

There are no official breaks and students on certain courses will be required to submit essays or sit exams throughout the whole semester. There is usually a two week teaching break at Christmas, but we would advise you to check your department’s website for essay/exam timetables before making any travel arrangements.
