What your student account includes
Want to change your name in the university systems?
If you do not have a Swedish personal identity number, you can request a name change by contacting the Ladok administration at Lund University. You will need to attach a valid ID to your request.
If you have a Swedish personal identity number, you can update your name through the Swedish Tax Agency. The change will then be reflected automatically across the university systems.
