Register and create a student account

You must register so as not to lose your place in the programme or courses to which you have been admitted.

When you register for a programme or course, it means that you are confirming your admission and have decided to pursue these studies.

You must be registered to participate in the educational programme and for results to be reported from exams, laboratory work, or other study achievements.

At the same time you register, you create your student account. With the student account, you get access to the systems you need for your studies, for example the learning platform. You will also get access to a student email account.

Follow the instructions on how to register and create your student account

How to find your schedule

You can find your schedule, including locations, in the digital schedule tool KronoX. Please note that changes to the schedule can take place at short notice. Therefore, make a habit of checking the schedule in KronoX regularly.

The learning platform Canvas

On the New Student website, you can find a lot of good information, including about the learning platform, Canvas, which you get access to after you register and create your student account. It is on the learning platform that we post information about the courses and this is also where a lot of communication between teachers and students, as well as between students, takes place.

Kick-off and Orientation Days

Each term begins with a kickoff (in Swedish "Insparken"). The Student Union in Borås is responsible for the activities that are organised.

The week before the courses start, the university offers a number of information sessions that are good for you as a new student to take part in. You likely have many questions and concerns before the start of the term, and it’s here that you will have the opportunity to get answers to your questions and feel ready for the start of your studies.
