Before the exam

Register for an on-campus written exam by logging into Ladok. The registration period opens 21 days before the exam and closes again seven days before the date of the exam. The same applies for re-sits. If you do not register on time, you will not be able to take the exam and will have to wait until the next opportunity.

Log in to Ladok using your MauID and password. Find your exam under the tab ‘Examinations’. When you confirm your registration, you will receive a green confirmation and can also see your registration under the 'Signed up' tab.
