Welcome new students
Arriving at Loughton
Get ready for your first day
First things first
There's loads to keep you busy at Essex, but first, there are a few essential things to do. Don't worry - we're here to help your time at Essex start smoothly.
Things to do when you arrive
Still looking for accommodation?
Our Loughton E15 students live and study in the local area and our Students’ Union property finding service, SU Homes, will help you find the right accommodation for your needs. Choose between a shared house, living with a landlord or letting a whole house. If you have any questions, contact our Student Services Team at askthehub-lc@essex.ac.uk
Get registered
You can start your University registration online, but, every new student must also attend registration on campus. It’s how we know you’ve arrived and are ready to start your course, so don’t miss it!
When you register, you become an official member of our Community and get full access to our facilities and services. You’ll need to register at the right time for your course, so make sure you look at your registration schedule to see when you and your classmates are due to register.
