Checklista inför studiestart
Innan den första dagen på din utbildning behöver du ta några viktiga steg.
1.Your offer
You have been admitted. If you want to keep your place (seat), you do not have to reply to your offer.
If you do not want to keep your place you should decline your offer by logging in to 'My pages' on universityadmissions.se, and follow the instructions. You should click "I wish to decline this offer" next to the course or programme you want to decline.
If you see "Reserve" next to your course or programme in the Notification of selection results, this means that you've been placed on a waiting list for that course/programme.
2.Aktivera ditt UMU-id och MFA
Som ny student får du automatiskt ett UMU-id, men du måste själv aktivera det. Det kan du vanligtvis göra en vecka innan terminsstart, men ofta går det att göra tidigare. Du får inget särskilt meddelande – håll själv koll när det går att aktivera.
Ditt UMU-id behöver du när du ska:
- registrera dig på utbildningen
- lämna in tentor, uppgifter eller se dina resultat
- kolla din studentmejl
- skaffa UMU-kort
- använda datorer i datorsalar och universitetets wifi
MFA – ökar din digitala säkerhet
För att öka säkerheten och minska risken att obehöriga kommer åt din information eller ditt konto behöver du aktivera MFA (multifaktorautentisering). MFA behövs för att du ska kunna logga in i olika system, exempelvis lärplattformen Canvas och studentwebben.

Om du får problem att logga in eller aktivera ditt UMU-id eller MFA kontakta IT-supporten Servicedesk så får du hjälp.
3.Registrera dig på kursen
You need to be registered for the course in the study documentation system in order to keep your place (seat) and to have your results recorded during the course. Online registration is open between 24-08-2026 and 31-08-2026. If you do not register by August 31 at the latest, you risk losing your place.
To be able to sign in to register online, you need to have activated your Umu-id account and MFA.

4.Studiestart
Remember! To begin the course, you must first register (between August 24 and August 31 2026, see above). In this course, we will use the learning platform Canvas (https://www.umu.se/en/student/help-and-support/it-services/software-and-services/canvas/). Log in to Canvas with your Umu-id as soon as possible after registration and familiarize yourself with the site and the information about the course that is available there.
