Enrolment

Enrolment is a crucial part of your student journey, as it gives you access to:

• Your student loan – if you have been awarded a student loan, completing your enrolment will allow UEL to release your loan.
• UCFB Online Hub – your online learning tools.
• On campus events – you will need to complete enrolment before you can be issued a student ID card. You will need this to access UCFB on-campus facilities.
• Your timetable – after completing your online enrolment, you will be able to view your timetable by logging in to UCFB Learner Portal. Please be aware, that although your timetable may not be visible as soon as you enrol, it will be available before teaching starts.

Enrolment will take place in 2 parts and as such you will need 2 separate usernames and passwords. One for UCFB and one for UEL.

Part 1 – Enrolment with UCFB

This will involve completing a short consent form and agreeing to UCFB policies, and should only take a few minutes to complete.

You will receive an email from enrol@ucfb.com with a reminder of your username and a link to a consent form.

Part 2 – Enrolment with UEL

This will also involve agreeing to be registered with UEL as a student within their own regulations and policies

IMPORTANT: If you are a new student enrolling with UEL, your enrolment emails will be sent to your personal email address. This is the latest email address you have provided us with.

If you have provided a school or college email address, you will need to provide us with an up-to-date email address as soon as possible.

You will receive an email from noreply@Uel.ac.uk. It will contain guidance on what you need to do and who to contact if you experience any issues.

If you are a returning student you will use your existing username. If you are unsure of your username, you can contact thehub@uel.com or contact enrol@ucfb.com.

You will complete enrolment using UEL direct

You can find additional information about enrolling with UEL here, a video here and information about password recovery here

If experience any issues with your UEL enrolment, please email thehub@uel.ac.uk

Please be aware, that UCFB staff do not have access to UEL systems. Any issues accessing their systems must be reported using the contact details shown above.

1. Enrolment is a 2 part process. You must enrol with UCFB and with our validating partner the University of East London (UEL) If you don’t complete both you will not be enrolled!
2. When completing enrolment with UEL you will need to provide financial evidence. If you have applied for a student loan you will need your Customer Reference Number (CRN) and/or Student Support Number (SSN), you can find this on your correspondence with the student loans company. If you have a sponsor paying your fees, you will need your sponsorship letter. You will need to make a payment if you are funding yourself. You can always contact our finance team on fees@ucfb.com if you are unsure or need support.
3. Our experience shows it is beneficial to enrol prior to Welcome Week – Students who complete their enrolment before Welcome Week hit the ground running and perform better on their degree.
4. Returning students need to re-enrol! You will be required to enrol for every year of your course, Returning student’s enrolment invite form UEL will be sent to your UEL email address.
5. Help is at hand! There is support for you to complete enrolment if you are facing difficulties. Both UCFB|GIS and UEL have dedicated enrolment pages.
