Checklist

Here is a checklist of what you need to do before going home. It is important that you follow these steps carefully!

1. Get your Transcript of Records

Your Transcript of Records will not be sent to your home university automatically. You have to order it and send it to your home university yourself. Choose one out of the following options:

(Students at the Faculty of Health Sciences contact Anna Sandelin)

a. Degree certificate

This is the certificate you want to save for yourself (to hang on the wall). In the Student Portal you click on “Student services” and then “Degree application”. As “Course name” you write “Exchange student” under in the course name box you write ALL codes of the courses you have completed. For example: TGZD20, THEN10, 723G31, 714G37, 921G13 etc. 

b. Transcript of Records

This is the transcript you want to hand in to your home university. In the Student Portal you click on “Student services” and then “Transcripts”. Make sure you chose option no. 4 to get your transcript in English.

c. On-line verifiable Tanscript of Records

To get your transcript of records as pdf-file you go to the Student Portal click in “Student services” and then “Verifiable transcripts”. This authenticity of this printout is verifiable on-line.

d. Printout of your Transcript of Records

At the Student Reception Desk in Zenit you can get your transcript printed and stamped immediately. If all your grades have not been reported when you leave Sweden you can still use methods a, b, or c to get your transcript of records. Please notice though that your log-in to the Student Portal will expire some months after you finished your studies at LiU. You can reach the responsible persons for the transcript of records on +46 13 282000 or write an e-mail to: portal@studc.liu.se

2. Check that all your documents are correctly signed

All universities require different documents. If you are unsure what documents you need please check with your home university. To avoid large queues try not to come the last days to have your documents signed.

3. Change your address in the Student Portal

Make sure to change your address on the Student Portal to the address in your home country so that the transcript is not sent to your address in Sweden.

4. Fill out the questionnaires

Fill out the Visiting Student Report at www.stars.liu.se before you leave. To log in, use your temporary personal number with a prefix as both user name and password. The number should be written in a continuous succession i.e. liu_700503P203. If it doesn’t work try with a lower case p, i.e. liu_700503p203.
