2. Program specific roll-call in Alnarp, Ultuna och Umeå |
Please note that the room allocation is still preliminary and can be changed. Do not mention a specific room in your welcome letters or course schedule, instead refer students to the new student pages. This makes things easier should we need to change something.
Attending roll-call is compulsory for all newly admitted programme students. Compulsory attendance at digital roll-calls applies to students admitted to distance learning programmes.
Exceptions are possible if a student has special reasons for not attending. Students who cannot attend and have special reasons must inform SLU of this by emailing antagning@slu.se no later than 09.00 on 31 August. Students who remain at home for special reasons are also encouraged to contact their programme director of studies.
