How to enrol
One of the first things you’ll need to do is enrol online, and we’ll send you an email to your personal email address letting you know when you can do this. It's essential that you complete your enrolment as soon as possible. It's a quick and simple process and, once it's done, we can begin registering you as a student.
As part of the enrolment process, you will need to upload a passport-style photo that must meet these specific requirements. This photo will be on your KentOne student ID card for the whole period of your studies and cannot be changed.
After you have enrolled, you will automatically begin completing the My tuition fees screens. This ensures that your finance record is correct. Check out our 'How to' guides for more information:
