Increase your security level to access Ladok
From December 4, 2023, all students with a Swedish social security number at Mid Sweden University must have a higher security level on their student account in order to log in to Ladok. To get the right level, you need to identify yourself with BankID or visit IT support to identify yourself.
Note that this only applies to you who have a Swedish social security number. If you do not have a Swedish social security number, you will be able to log in without raising the security level of your account.
If you want to identify yourself with your ID at IT support, you can visit them in the Service Center. They are always there Monday-Thursday from 10 am to 2 pm. Valid ID documents are, for example, passports, Swedish ID cards or driving licenses (not digital).
If you choose to authenticate with BankID, you must click on the link "authenticate with BankID".
What does this mean for you?
If you do not raise your security level, you will not be able to log into Ladok after December 4, 2023, without first authenticating yourself. If you cannot log in to Ladok, you will not be able to access your results, register for courses or register for an exam, for example.
Why do we need to do this?
Mid Sweden University is part of the federation SWAMID (Swedish Academic Identity Federation) and therefore needs to follow their rules for how accounts are managed. One of the rules is account security levels, that is, how sure we are about who holds a student account.
Ladok is the first system at Mid Sweden University to require a higher security level for login, but more and more systems will require higher security levels in the future.
