You use your student account to log in to the Student Portal and access the learning platform Canvas, Ladok, Wifi, and much more. In order to use your student account, you must first activate it.
As a new student at the University of Gothenburg, you need to access your student account. If you have a Swedish personal identity number and login information to universityadmissions.se, eduID or Freja eID Plus you can activate your student account yourself.
Please note! If you do not have a permanent Swedish personal identity number, you need support from Servicecenter to access your student account. Fill out the student account support form.
When you activate your student account via universityadmissions.se, eduID, or Freja eID Plus, your username will be displayed directly on the screen and you choose your own password.
Please note that you must be admitted to a course or study programme at the University of Gothenburg in order to be able to activate your student account.
