FAQ
My exam hasn't been reported
The examiner has 15 working days to report the exam to Ladok, but sometimes there can be a delay between the examiner, the student office and Ladok.
If the exam still isn't showing up after 15 working days, please contact the examiner and politely ask about it. If you have an important deadline such as CSN or exchange studies you can always contact your examiner and ask if you can get prioritized grading. It is important for your own sake that you contact your examiner well in advance of any upcoming deadline.
You may also want to contact your Studienämnd in the case that you problem is not resolved.
Where can I find important dates?

I forgot to apply for a course/exam
