I have forgotton my KauID password

KauID is your digital identity as a student at Karlstad University.

You will use your KauID during your entire period of study to access services like My Kau, Canvas LMS, the wireless network, Ladok for students, library services and more.

If you have an official Swedish personal identity number (personnummer) you can reset your KauID password using either universityadmissions.se or eduID. Your account must have a confirmed status at the service you use. Otherwise, you can order an activation code. If you are an exchange student, then you should request an activation code.

When you have logged into universityadmission.se with your account details you will be sent back here to choose a new KauID password.
