Save documents at the department network

K:\ is where teachers leave materials for the courses to the students. No student is able to write here, only copy and read.

L:\ is where work that both students and teachers have access to is stored, for instance group work or digital assignments.

IMPORTANT!! Files saved under L:\ are removed after one semester, and the storage is completely deleted at the end of every December and every June.

When you create files, use a normal structure, username or course code number, or the name of the project. The structure is checked regularly, and any files that have been created and named in another way might be removed without further notice.

Conditional admission

When you receive your admission decision, you should pay particular attention to Notes/Conditions.

If you have been admitted on a course subject to special conditions, you must take a certificate with you at the start of the course to show that you meet these conditions, in other words, that you have passed the course(s) which constitute the entry requirements. You can add your own verifiable national certificate of your results on the Student web. You will find the entry requirements in the course syllabus.

Find out more about entry requirements and conditions here.
