Complete start-up processes

Now you've arrived in Leeds, there are a small number of things you'll need to do in your first few days. Here are some helpful pages to get you started.

Complete your registration

Registration is the official process of becoming a student of the University. Registration guidance for students is provided below, and you will need to register at the start of every academic year.

Collect your Biometric residence permit

If you have a Student visa or a Short Term Study Visa and are attending a course for six months or longer, you’ll need to collect your Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) in Leeds.

Register with a doctor and a dentist

It’s important to be able to speak to a local doctor in case you are ill during your time at university. As soon as possible after you arrive, register with a local GP surgery and a dentist.
