What is Registration?
Registration is the formal process of becoming a student of the University and is the means by which the University confirms that it holds correct information about its students, their programmes of study and the arrangements for the payment of their tution fees.

Every student is required to register at the start of their studies and then re-register each year on the anniversary of their start date. Registration enables students to receive supervision and access services including the University Library and computing facilities.

For instance, it provides details of the general University regulations regarding entry requirements, assessment of progress, time limits for examination and the criteria which must be met before research degrees can be awarded.
