When you log into the student website, you will automatically see your schedule on the start page as well as links to your welcome letter, course syllabus and literature list, and in other parts of the web, you will find information aimed at you and your course or programme specifically.
Schedule
If your course or study programme has chosen to show your schedule on the student web, this will be the first thing you see once you have logged into the student web. You will usually see your schedule directly on the start page. But in some cases, it is found via a link above the schedule view.
You can find your schedule on the start page if you have logged in.
Active courses
If you have logged into the student web, the start page lists your active courses.Your active courses are those you are registered on for the current semester, but also those you have been admitted to but have not yet registered for. The coloured text next to the course name indicates if you have only been admitted or if you have also registered for the course. Remember that you must register after you have been admitted if you wish to keep your place on the course.
Each course in this list provides a number of links to tools that are shown if they are available: Course syllabus & literature, Welcome letter, Canvas.

Information adapted to you and your courses
On the rest of the student website, you will find information applicable to all students, and many of these pages also contain additional information applicable to you and your course or programme. This information is labelled with the name of your current course or programme.
When you have logged into the student web, this content is shown to you automatically.
These are some examples of what you can see:
The content within the blue marking applies to one specific course or programme, in this case the Dentistry Programme.
The content within the pink marking applies to all students, whereas the content in the blue marking applies to a specific programme indicated by the label.
If you have not logged in
If you cannot or do not want to log in, the content aimed at you will not be shown automatically. Instead, you can find the information using the pink search filter at the bottom of the page. If you cannot find your department or programme in the drop-down menu, this means that no information specific for your course or programme is available.

Canvas and Ladok – two services you need as a student
During your studies, you will come across two other systems: Canvas virtual learning environment, and Ladok student registry.
Canvas is Umeå University’s virtual learning environment, or learning platform. In Canvas, you will get course assignments and course information from your teachers. You can also communicate with your fellow students through Canvas.
In the Ladok student registry, some steps of your studies are administered. For instance, when you have been admitted to a course, you need to register for the course to keep your place, and once you have started, you need to sign up for exams before you can take them.
