New student

Before the start of the semester, you must activate your University Account in order to get access to all the IT services at the University. Activation of university accounts opens no earlier than August 4 for autumn semester 2025.

After activation, you will receive a confirmation email with further instructions on how to order a university card and register for your courses.

Students without a Swedish personal identity number (“personnummer” in Swedish) should contact the Academic Advisor to receive a one-time code.

Remember to register!

As of 1 January 2024, you must temporarily log in to Ladok in a different way than you normally do. Instead of using your regular university account, you must use eduID or your account on antagning.se.

It is important that you register for the courses you have been admitted to in order to keep your place

Visit Athena

If you have questions about Athena you can contact the university's help desk, ask your question in the Service Portal or call 08-16 19 99. Among other things, you can get help with resetting your password.

Athena on the cellphone

You can download a free app and use Athena on your cellphone or iPad. The app is called Itslearning and is available for iPhone and Android.

If you were placed on a waiting list, the university may review applicants from the waiting list in specific order after admissions selection and may then offer you a place.

If we were to admit reserves, a possible reserve admission will in that case take place on January 14. Should you receive a place from the waiting-list, you will receive an admission letter from the University Admissions and a welcome letter from SBS. You also need to register for the courses you have been admitted to, before January 16, to keep your place.

If you do not hear from us on January 14, you have unfortunately not been given a place.

If you don't wish to keep the place, please be sure to decline it at Universityadmissions.se so that it can be made available to someone else.

If you accept your place, all further contact will be made with Stockholm Business School.

Being accepted with conditions means that you did not fulfill the eligibility requirement when applying for the course module or programme. You then have until the start of the semester to fulfill your eligibility. You need to show that you are eligible to be registered on the course module or programme you applied for.

Students who are required to pay tuition fees will be listed as 'Conditionally admitted' on their Notification of Selection Results. Your status will still be listed as 'Conditionally admitted' even after you've paid the tuition fee. This is because our computer system can't record when a student has paid the first instalment to their university.

If you have been admitted but cannot start the program that semester, you can apply for a deferral of study commencemen. The reason for deferral must normally have arisen after the end of the notification period.

If you are newly admitted to a  bachelor's programme and have already studied courses that are part of the programme, you can, if there are place, start at a later part of the programme.
You must contact the Academic Advisor for more information.
