Bulletin 5.11.2024

If you started completing your first degree at an institution of higher education in the autumn semester 2024, you can now complete the HealthStart questionnaire in the Self online service. After completing the HealthStart questionnaire, you’ll receive feedback on your state of health and may be referred to health promotion services provided by the FSHS.

The HealthStart questionnaire examines your physical, mental and social health, as well as the key aspects of your health behavior and factors affecting your health, health behavior and ability to study.

How to complete the questionnaire

  • As a first-year student you can fill in the HealthStart questionnaire in the Self online service.
  • If you have updated your contact information in Self, you have been sent a personal invitation by SMS. Even if you don’t get an SMS invitation, you’ll find the questionnaire in the online service Self if you started your first degree this academic year.
  • You will get an appointment or instructions on how to book an appointment, if you need a personal visit based on your answers from the health questionnaire. You will be able to see the information about the appointment or your time booking permission in Self. You will be informed by SMS if you update your contact details in the Self online service, AND give us permission to send you text messages related to using services at FSHS.
  • Once the HealthStart questionnaire is available to you, it will stay on your home screen in the Self online service until the end of the academic year or until you complete it. After you’ve completed the questionnaire, it will be shown in the Services section.
