What to do when you have been accepted into your course?

So you have received your confirmation email saying that you have been accepted into the UoM (CONGRATULATIONS!!). There are still a few steps you need to take to finalise your spot here.

This will be a brief guide on what you need to do, but a more detailed guide is provided on our “get ready” and “arrival guide” booklet (please have a look, they are very useful!). Physical copies would have been sent to you as well.

If you are an EU based student (Germany, Italy, etc.), then this is your to-do list (non-EU students please scroll down!)

    • you can do this when you receive your activation email from UoM(you should receive it around late August)
  • Register online(for more detail please refer to “arrival guide“, pg44 or “get ready”, pg3-5)
    • you can do this anytime between 1 Sept to 30 Sept
    • this will lead you to a fee payment page where you will pay your fee
    • late registration after 30 Sept will incur a £200 charge(put a reminder of this on your phone now!)
    • this is where you will pay your tuition fees.
  • Lookup student accommodations if you have not already applied.

  1. Hi! I’m still having a bit of trouble uploading my photo to my profile. Do you know how I can do this? Thank you!

    1. Hi Kiana it may be that the problem is the style of the photo. The system will only accept passport style photo as we have discovered that students have had problems with the more selfie style ones if they have gone on placement. If you continue to have problems you can email ssc@manchester.ac.uk I hope this helps!

  2. heyy!! I just want to know that I am an international student and will be setting up a direct debit with the university to pay my fees in 3 instalments in a year. so after reaching Manchester I guess it’ll take a few days to setup a UK bank account and do all these transactions so I want to know will I be allowed to attend the classes if the fee is not yet paid by that time or will only be allowed to attend it once it’s paid and the registration has been completed? Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks !

    1. Hey Usman! Yes you will still be able to attend your classes during this time, but please get this done by the end of September as they will charge you £200 if you miss this deadline.
      Hope this solves your problem : )
