You will complete your online enrolment on OSIS, our applicant and student portal.
You will be asked to complete an online form to provide information including:
- Your personal details, including your named emergency contact
- Your term time address. If you do not know your term time address because you will be living in our Halls of Residence, please do not worry about completing this part. Your term time address will be auto-populated once your room has been allocated
- Disability declaration. This is so we can offer you the best support during your time at Kingston
- How you intend to pay your course fees (e.g. student loan)
- Any additional qualifications you have, but have not given to us, such as Functional Skills or a music qualification. We would particularly like you to upload any qualifications that carry additional UCAS points.
You will also be asked to read and agree to:
- Our student regulations. This is the contract you are entering into with the University and it covers our student code of conduct that all students are required to sign up to. These regulations explain things such as your commitment to paying fees, your right to cancel your place and the timeframe you would need to do this within. You can also find our key contractual information and your rights to cancel explained at the bottom of this email
- Our plans for teaching your course as a result of COVID-19. If you haven't already read these updates, you can find the information on the individual course pages on our website. You will be asked to confirm you have read and understood these changes.
After you have completed your online enrolment, a member of the enrolment team will check and verify your identity by checking your identity document against your uploaded ID card photo.
Once we have completed this, we will confirm to you, by email, that your enrolment is complete. These emails will go out from Monday 12 September.
If there are any problems with your online enrolment, will we be in touch with you via email or phone to resolve this.
