Registration

Information on registration for new, returning and international students.

Why you need to register

Whether you’re a new or returning student, you will need to complete student registration at the start of each academic year. You will receive an email from the University inviting you to register online. You must register with the University so that you can:

  • confirm your details
  • agree to UWE Bristol's Terms and Conditions
  • arrange to pay your fees
  • access the online learning platforms
  • access your timetable (it takes three working days for your full timetable to be visible in MYUWE)
  • receive your student loan (if applicable)
  • collect your student ID card upon arrival.
