Registration
You can register one week before the course starts. It is only when you are registered that you are officially counted as a student in that semester and are allowed to attend classes in the course. Information on how to register you find on the page Registration, results and certificates | Student Portal (gu.se)

Disability study support
All students at the University of Gothenburg should have the opportunity and means to complete their studies. Students with disability can therefore receive study support by making a digital application via the NAIS system.  Apply as soon as you can and then bring your written statement to the study counselor in time for the course introduction.
