If you have questions regarding your notification of selection results, please contact the study counselor.

Conditional admittance

If you are conditionally admitted to a course you must contact the student office during the registration period, in order to keep your place in the course.

It is important that you look at the rules for conditional admittance before you apply for courses.

The general rules for conditional admittance are stated at the Stockholm university webpage.

It is also good to be aware that you can only be admitted to a maximum of 45 ECTS credits, and if you get conditionally admitted to a course this will also count as part of those maximum 45 ECTS credits.

So if you get conditionally admitted to a course of 30 ECTS credits, all courses you have put on lower priority that are bigger than 15 ECTS credits will be removed from your application.

If you cannot show eligibilty to a course to which you are conditionally admitted, you cannot be registered to the course.

Re-registration for the undergraduate level courses is done at the Student Office.

For re-registration to the advanced courses, please contact the Study counsellor. Write your name and and which course you want to be re-registered on.

If you de-register from a course later than three weeks after the course has started, you will be unable to make another application for the same course. You will only be able to take the course again (re-register) if there are places available.
