Joining us in October 2024?
We can’t wait for you to start your Essex journey with us this October!
To help you prepare for joining us, we’ll be keeping this page up to date across the summer.
You’ll be able to complete the online steps of registration from Tuesday 03 September 2024, when our Online Pre-Registration system opens.
We recommend setting up your Essex IT account as soon as possible after you get the email confirming your student record is ready. This will enable you to access our online systems and stay in touch via email across the period leading up to the start of your course.
If you are looking to make plans to arrive at the University, our Arrivals Weekend will be taking place from Saturday 28 September 2024. From Monday 30 September 2024 we’ll be hosting Welcome Week on our campuses, during which our main registration period will run*, as well as a range of essential induction activities relating to your course.
*If you are studying at our Loughton Campus, please note that in-person registration will take place on Friday 27 September 2024, so please ensure you make plans to be able to attend campus on this day. Further information on booking your registration appointment will be sent to you as we approach this date.
The remainder of this page contains helpful information on the steps you’ll need to do to complete registration for your course, so please familiarise yourself with this information.
