Collecting your ID card
When you arrive on campus, you will need to collect your new student ID card to complete the registration process and officially enrol at Loughborough University. Your new student ID card will provide access to buildings across the campus, including the library, halls of residence and the Students’ Union. It also proves your student status.
If you are experiencing symptoms of Covid, please do not attend a registration event.

UK/Irish students (UK fee status) in University halls of residence
If you are paying UK tuition fees and are a UK or Irish national, your identity will be confirmed and you will receive your ID card when you check into your halls of residence.
You will need to bring your UK or Irish Passport, or UK/Channel Islands/Isle of Man/Republic of Ireland Birth Certificate or Adoption Certificate and evidence of National Insurance number (NI card/letter from government body/employer).

All other students at the Loughborough campus
Registration will take place in the James France Building during the weeks commencing 26 September and 3 October 2022. After completing online registration, you will need to book a registration appointment where we will confirm your identity and right to study in the UK, and issue your student ID card. We will email students when appointment bookings open.
If you hold a Student Visa and requested that your Biometric Residence Permit be sent to the University, it should be available for collection at your registration appointment.
