How to Complete Online Enrolment
Introduction
Now that you have accepted an offer of a place on a programme, or you are a successful returning student, your status in the University's Administration system changes to EL (Eligible to Register).
In order to proceed and receive access to your learning materials and University systems you will need to complete Online Enrolment which changes your status to RE (Registered). This is an important distinction as only registered (enrolled) students receive access to University systems such as Blackboard.
Sponsor Information
If your employer, a government agency or any other organisation apart from the Student Loans Company is paying your fees, IT IS VITAL that you first read the Sponsor Information section BEFORE beginning registration.

Important
Please remember that having successfully completed online enrolment does not mean instantaneous access to Blackboard. Module choices must to be migrated to the Student Record system from which Blackboard takes its data feed. You should gain timely access to your course which typically commences on the first day of each semester, each academic year.

Module Selection
There are four sub-stages within the module selection stage of online enrolment (though not all students will need to go through all of these.) All students, except research students, should enrol on at least one module. Students taking modules in the second semester MUST select these at enrolment at the start of the academic year. Students have two weeks at the start of each semester in which to add or drop modules.
Part-time students are reminded that University Regulations stipulate that part-time students may take no more than a maximum of 45 credits in semester 1, 45 in semester 2 and 20 in semester 3 (subject to course regulations). Students are responsible for ensuring that they do not exceed this study load.
NB Some students, for example research students, who do not normally take modules, can proceed to Stage 4 (Fees) of online enrolment after confirming that they are not taking any modules.
Mandatory Modules screen
If there are mandatory modules on the year of the course on which you are enrolling, these will be listed. Please ensure that each of the modules you are taking has a tick in the box beside the module. If there are two options available for a module code, please ensure you have selected the one with the right campus/semester (see note below).
Please note: If there are only optional modules on the year of the programme you are taking then you will not be presented with the Mandatory Modules screen.
Optional Modules selection screen
Any optional modules available on your programme are listed in this part of Module Selection.
Please note: If there are only mandatory modules on the year of the programme you are taking then you will not be presented with the Optional Modules screen.
Please tick the box against each of the optional modules you will be taking.
Additional Modules selection screen
If you have no compulsory modules, or need to enrol in additional modules, you will have to search for and select these modules.
If you know the CRN (Course Reference Number) of the module, select "Find Module by CRN".
If you do not know the CRN select "Search for Modules".
Once you have selected all your modules, select the "Save and Continue" button to continue.
Confirm Module selection screen

If you wish to drop any of these modules or to add others you can do so using the "Edit Modules" button.
Once you are satisfied that your choice is correct click "Confirm and Proceed to Next Stage".
