Enrolment information
What is university enrolment?
Enrolment is when you are confirmed as a student at the University of Northampton. The enrolment process for new students usually involves two stages which you must complete:
- Step 1 – Pre-Enrolment – An online process to verify personal details, confirm your programme of studies and provide identification documentation.
- Step 2 – Face to Face Enrolment Session – A face-to-face process session on campus. We will check your personal details and identification, scan passport/visa (if applicable) and provide you with a student ID card
(Please note: Some programmes such as Distance Learning and stand alone-modules are managed remotely and do not require attendance at a Face-to-Face enrolment session. If you are not required to attend a Face-to-Face enrolment we will advise you of this when you are invited to pre-enrol). Read our quick guide blog to enrolment.
