Enrolment
What is enrolment?
When starting university or returning for a new academic session, you will need to complete enrolment.
Enrolment involves confirmation of your details, paying your tuition fees, and agreeing to the terms and conditions for your course of study.
Enrolment is a critical step whether you’re a new or returning student starting a new academic year of study.
If you fail to complete your enrolment you risk losing your place on your course.
Your invite to enrol is in your inbox
If you’re a new student, you will be invited to complete enrolment and will receive an email to the email address you used on your application. This email will ask you to set up your student account and will include a temporary password. Once you have completed this step, you can complete enrolment.
If you’re a returning student progressing to the next academic year, you will receive an invite to re-enrol for your next academic session when you are eligible to do so. This email will be sent to your UEL student email account, so please check regularly.
Let's get you enrolled
Look out for your invite to enrol and set up your account
ShowOnce you have your invite to enrol, you will need to log on to your UEL account. If you’re a new student, you will receive a temporary password and will be asked to choose a new password before you can complete enrolment.
When choosing your new password, please make sure it has:
- at least 8 characters
- a mix of upper and lower case
- at least one number OR special character such as #
If you need help, watch our step-by-step video or visit our password information page to see how to reset your password and log in for the first time. If you’re a returning student please use your existing student account details, or if you have forgotten them, you can reset your password.
