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, unless you are an international student, where registration is completed in person. You don’t need to do anything further once you’ve completed your enrolment, however international students may have further steps to complete - 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.

Everyone is so friendly, local students help you discover the area and you get to know people from all over the world. I love it here. Medway really is a wonderful place.
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 our email inviting you to book a collection appointment in the Medway building reception. You will not be registered until you have collected your BRP from us. To collect your BRP, you must bring your physical 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 Medway building reception in order for us to take a copy of it for your student record before the registration deadline. You will not be registered until you have presented both your passport and BRP to us.
