Withdrawal from studies
If you decide to withdraw from your studies, we like you to let us know. This enables us, as an authority, to keep the student information system Ladok accurately updated with information on which students are currently active.
Early withdrawal
If you withdraw from your studies within three weeks of starting a course and have not received any study results, you can report an early withdrawal. You will then have the opportunity to reapply for the course the next time it is offered. As a student, you can do this yourself through Ladok for students.
Please note: After a registered withdrawal from studies, there are no opportunities to participate in teaching or examination in any courses in the programme.
Withdrawal from individual programme courses or free-standing courses
If you wish to withdraw from a specific course (not an entire programme), you do this yourself through Ladok for students
Withdrawal from a study programme, including unfinished courses within the programme
If you wish to withdraw from a programme permanently, please fill in the form "Notification of withdrawal from a study programme" below to be deregistered from the programme. In order to resume your studies, you must reapply for admission in competition with other applicants. Please read the information and instructions on the form before submitting it to your department.
