Pre-registration
This is the first step to complete the registration for your course. It is where you will provide ID documentation and a passport style photo to be put onto your student ID. Registration will be open from Monday 4 December.
Pre-induction
This is an online resource for you to learn all about the services the university has to offer. It also includes booking links for halls drop-off, faculty and programme welcome, including details of your on-campus induction schedule. The link for this will be sent to you after you have completed pre-registration.

*For students at the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences (HLS), your ID card will be issued by the faculty during your induction. HLS will send you details about this.
For international students it is an appointment-based face to face appointment where your ID is checked, you are handed your Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) and given your student ID card. This begins from Monday 18 December.
Go to the International Students’ page for more information.
