Welcome Guide
How to complete your enrolment
Complete these steps to enrol on your York St John University course.
When you have completed the enrolment process below, you will be able to:
- Use the library
- Use computing facilities
- Receive your University Student ID card (if you are eligible)
- Have your student loan payments initiated (if applicable)
The final date for enrolment is 2 weeks after the start of your course. After that date, access to online enrolment will be denied and you will need to contact the Student Records team at studentrecords@yorksj.ac.uk.
Receive your enrolment email
Before you can begin, you need to get your enrolment email from our Registry team. Please keep checking your email inbox for this.
Your enrolment email will contain your Student ID number and enrolment key.
If you have not received your email, please do not worry. Contact studentrecords@yorksj.ac.uk and our friendly team will be able to help.
Create your IT account
You will need your enrolment key and a digital photograph. A photograph is required for ID purposes and will be used for your Student ID card, if you are eligible for one.
Your photo should:
- Be in a similar style to a passport photo
- Be a recent colour photograph taken against a pale background
- Be of you alone (no other people or pets)
- Show you facing forwards with your head and shoulders filling 80% of the frame
- Show your full face and eyes clearly
- Be in JPEG format, at least 300px by 300px in size
Enrol online
As part of this process you will be asked to confirm your personal details and provide information about how you will be funding your course.
Please note, you will not be able to log in until you have received your enrolment email. For support, please contact studentrecords@yorksj.ac.uk.
Complete student registration
Home students
Every student must complete their online student registration.
Registration is how we know you are ready to start your course. Registration will open a few days before the start date of your degree. You will be sent an email informing you when this is available to you.
You must complete the online registration stage in order to become fully enrolled at the University. It is vital that you register as soon as possible because this creates the formal contract between you and the University.
To register, you will need to log into your student account in e:Vision. You will be asked to confirm your personal details and course of study.
International students
You will complete your registration in person at either the York or London campus, as appropriate.
More information about registration will be available here soon.
Collect your student ID card
Home students
Once you have fully enrolled by completing the steps above you will be eligible to collect your student ID card.
You can collect your card on campus between 23 September and 4 October by appointment. Full details of how to pick up your card will be available soon.
You need to make sure you have uploaded a suitable photograph at least 5 days before your appointment date so that we have time to get your card ready for you. Please make sure you bring along a form of photo ID when you come to collect.
International students
You will be able to collect your ID card after your documents have been checked by the Visa and Compliance team.
London Campus students
If you are a student enrolling at our London campus please follow steps 1 to 3 above.
