Student Administration - Changing your Enrolment

What is a Change of Enrolment? Once a student has completed their initial enrolment or re-enrolment for the following academic year, they may wish to subsequently add/withdraw units, unit sets (majors or programs) to their enrolment.

Why does this matter? In accordance with HESA legislation and rules of the University, you are ultimately charged for the units you are enrolled in at the census date. Therefore it is your RESPONSIBILITY to ensure that your enrolment is correct. Failure to adhere to our formal deadlines will result in financial and academic liability.

How do I complete a change of Enrolment? The most common changes can be easily managed by our award course students through our online student portal studentConnect. Changes made to your enrolment using this method are easy to make and are instantaneous. This allows you better management of your enrolment and enables staff more time to deal with other more complex changes.
