Students must upgrade the assurance level of their computer identity to be able to log into Ladok for students.

The upgrade only applies to students with a Swedish personal identity number

Please note that only students with a Swedish personal identity number must upgrade the assurance level of their computer identity.

If you don't have a Swedish personal identity number, you can continue to log into Ladok as usual, without needing to upgrade.

Follow these steps to upgrade your computer identity

In IDS, you can choose to upgrade with BankID or eduID.

Before upgrading, you need to ensure that your private email address and mobile number are registered as recovery options. This is required so that you can recover your account if you forget your password.
