The Arrivals Hub will be open in the Templeman Library from:
It brings together administrative teams to help you in person, whether you are a new or returning student.
All undergraduate and postgraduate students living on campus: You'll need your ID documents and your Accommodation Arrival Pass.
Undergraduate students: You'll also need your University and College Payment Advice letter from Student Finance England.
International students: You'll also need your visa documents, academic certificates, marksheets and transcripts.
You must be registered to become a member of the University, even if you have studied at Kent at undergraduate level and you're now moving to a postgraduate course.
Every new student must enrol online in order for us to then register them. Look out for your How to enrol email in your applicant portal in-tray which will let you know when you can enrol. Not sure of the process? Check out our handy guide. You should also check our guide to the terminology of each process.
Registration is completed by us, online. You don’t need to do anything further once you’ve completed your enrolment, however visa holders may have further steps to complete to complete the Right to study checks - you will be emailed if that is the case.
We’ll let you know by email when your registration is complete and you are officially registered as a University of Kent student. We’ll also let you know how you will receive your KentOne student ID card.
You must ensure that you have completed your enrolment as soon as possible so that we can then register you as a student. The deadline for becoming a registered student is Monday 14 October 2024. Some Divisions or schools may have earlier deadlines; please contact your Division for further information.
You will need to choose the modules that you would like to study in Stage 1 (please note that there are some exceptions) by completing OMR. The deadline for online module registration is Monday 14 October 2024.
You can start to look at the modules on offer to you by viewing your Subject Requirements.

I’m a final-year Economics and Management student. I love it here, the campus is like a mini city with beautiful green spaces.
You will need to have your immigration status and ID documents checked by us.
If you are travelling from overseas and need to collect a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) from us, please wait for an email from the Student Immigration Compliance team confirming that they have received your BRP. You will not be registered until you have collected your BRP from us. To collect your BRP, you must bring your physical, current passport and UKVI visa decision letter for verification checks. Should these arrangements change, we will notify you of the process.
If you have collected your BRP from a Post Office, you must bring this in person to the Arrivals Hub so that we can take a copy for your student record. This must be done before the registration deadline. You will not be registered until you have presented both your passport and BRP to us.
