On this page you find information about writing examinations in the examination halls on campus. You also find information about how to take an e-examination.
Examination Schedule
You can see a schedule for examinations in the booking system TimeEdit.
You always need to sign up if you intend to attend a written exam. To be able to sign up for an exam you must be registered on the course, and you have to sign up during the period when signing up is open.
The examination halls for the University (Campus Umeå) are in Östra Paviljongen, Ålidbacken 23. At times when many students write examinations, other premises are also being used as examination halls.
If you are sick, you must not take part in your hall examination, and you must report your absence to your teacher. If you cannot participate due to sickness, you can instead take your examination at the next possible opportunity.
Reduce crowding in the building
It is still important to prevent crowding, so try to spend as little time as possible in the hallways outside the examination halls, both prior to and after the exam.
Identify yourself
The invigilator will check your identification against the list of registered students after you have sat down at your seat and the exam has started. Remember to take your identification with you to your seat.
Questions and comments during your exam? Contact the invigilator If you have questions during your exam, you can approach the invigilator’s desk and ask your questions through the Plexi glass sheet. Remember to maintain distance to other students and the invigilator – take note of the floor markings.
Hand in your exam
When handing in your exam, remember to maintain distance to other students and the invigilator – take note of the floor markings.
