Returning student enrolment

When it's time for you to enrol we'll send you an email with instructions on what to do.

You must receive your enrolment confirmation before enrolment for your course closes. We strongly recommend completing the online registration step of enrolment as soon as you're eligible. It can take up to 5 working days for your online registration to be reviewed. It may take longer for your enrolment to be confirmed if something is missing or incorrect upon review.

How to enrol

Step 1: Online registration

This is where you provide all the information we need to enrol you – this should be familiar to you from last year. When uploading documents and images, make sure you add your Student ID number at the start of the file name.

You'll need to (where applicable):

Log in to your UAL Portal

We strongly recommend using Chrome browser and changing the settings to allow pop-ups for the best experience

Step 2: Enrolment confirmation

Once you've submitted your online registration, we'll check your information to make sure we have everything we need to complete your enrolment.

We aim to make all of our checks within 5 working days, but it may take a little longer during busier times. Please be patient. We'll contact you as soon as we can.

If we're able to complete your enrolment, we'll send you an email confirmation.

If anything is missing from your online registration, or something is incorrect - your enrolment will be paused. We'll email you detailing what you must do next. Please check your inbox regularly.

Enrolment deadline

We strongly recommend you submit your online registration as far in advance of your course start date as possible. Any delay could mean we are unable to enrol you before your studies begin.

The deadline to enrol is:

  • Further Education: 2 weeks after your course start date
  • Higher Education: 3 weeks after your course start date

Your course start date is when teaching begins for your course. Check our term dates for 2023/24.
