At JU, it is compulsory for all students to become members of Jönköping Student Union. The Student Union is a great resource for students – they influence the quality of education, arrange activities and trips, carry out various projects, and much more. The student union fee is included in the tuition for tuition-fee paying students, however, all other students are required to pay the membership fee separately. The Student Union is located in the Students’ House. Learn more here: http://www.jonkopingsstudentkar.se/english/about-us.html

If you need help with general study related questions, certificates, directions, etc. There are staff at Service Center (main campus, Jönköping) who can help guide you. More info here: http://ju.se/student/en/service/service-center

We expect you to be in Gränna for the roll call when the semester starts. If you can not arrive on time and you have informed pathwayadmissions@ju.se, we grant late arrivals until 28 February. After that we can grant individuals to arrive later, up until 31 March. Do not forget to inform accommodations@ju.se and your teachers at pathway@ju.se as well.
