We're looking forward to welcoming you to UEA. We are here to guide you through the steps you need to take before arriving at university.
Registration and Arrivals
Around 30 days before you start your course you will receive a registration email. Please register as soon as possible.
Don’t forget to complete all parts of the online registration task so you can access your induction information, get your campus card, see your timetable, and start planning for your arrival at UEA.
Choose from the options below to find out how registration will work for you.
Registration and arrivals - undergraduates
 - Undergraduate UK students living in UEA accommodation: you will automatically be fully registered when you collect your accommodation keys.
- Undergraduate UK students not living in UEA accommodation: you will automatically be fully registered when you complete online registration.
- Undergraduate International and EU students: you must attend an in-person registration event. Depending on the type of immigration permission that you have this may be in-person or a remote process. We will update you on this before you arrive.
Registration and arrivals - postgraduate taught degrees
 - Postgraduate UK students living in UEA accommodation: you will automatically be fully registered when you collect your accommodation keys.
- Postgraduate UK students not living in UEA accommodation: you will automatically be fully registered when you complete online registration.

Registration and arrivals - postgraduate researchers
 Registration, for postgraduate researchers, will take place via an individual video meeting between you and a member of the Postgraduate Research Service. These meetings will take place from Thursday 27 January onwards. You should receive an invitation email from us by Tuesday 25th January containing details of your personal registration slot. We will call you through Microsoft Teams and use your UEA email address for the call, so you will need to log into the correct account in good time before the call. We will do everything we can to make sure we call promptly but please allow an extra 5 minutes.
The main purpose of our call is to complete your registration. If you have simple questions we can answer quickly we will. However, if answering your question will take time we will organise a follow-up call so that we have enough time to give you a full answer.
Further information is available on MyUEA (login required).
We know you will have lots of questions about being a new student at UEA. Our frequently asked questions will keep you up-to-date with what teaching and learning will look like at the start of term as well as answering your questions on the latest information for international new students to help with travelling to the UK.
You will also receive regular emails from us to help make your transition to University as smooth as possible whether you are joining us as an Undergraduate or Postgraduate, or from the UK or overseas so keep an eye on your inbox. We have included some key topics below which you can get started on before receiving your registration email.
