How and when to enrol on your modules

1. To access module enrolment, go to step 4 on the Student Services website.
2. Log in only once and on one device. Logging in on a second device will log you out of your first session. You can log in before module enrolment opens, but you’ll need to refresh the page once it opens at 10am (UK time).
3. If you receive the error message ‘Online enrolment is currently experiencing high demand’ refresh your browser and confirm form resubmission to continue. 
4. Click on the tab in the first menu (at the top of the screen) called ‘Modules/timetables’. Then select ‘Module enrolement’. You should reach a screen called ‘Module enrolment’ followed by the academic year. 
5. Check that the information about your course is correct in the fields ‘Your degree objective is’, ‘Your programme of study is’ and ‘Your year of study is’. If any information is incorrect, do not continue with module enrolment and contact your parent school.
6. There is a checklist of links on this screen you can use to navigate between the five steps to complete.

1. You can view the compulsory modules for your programme (course), year of study and associated credits, which are listed under the heading ‘View Compulsory Modules’. You will already be enrolled for these modules as they are a mandatory part of your degree.
2. Confirm they are correct and click ‘continue’ to go to the next step, or ‘checklist’ to return to the full list of steps.

If they are incorrect, do not continue with module enrolment and contact your parent school.

1. You can view both your personal timetable for semesters 1 and 2 and the individual module timetables by clicking on the links provided on the enrolment page(s). We recommend you compare the two, to make sure there aren’t any clashes with the modules you are interested in and to check your personal timetable regularly, in case there are any changes. 
2. Click ‘continue’ to go to the next step, or ‘checklist’ to return to the full list of steps.

If you’re a returning student, your timetable should display your compulsory modules.

If you’re a new student, your timetable with your compulsory modules on it will be available 48 hours after you’ve completed the registration process.

Your timetable is provisional and may change.

We recommend you check your timetable regularly to see if there are any changes. If you have any queries regarding your timetable, visit our Understand your timetable page or email your School's timetable contact.  

Enrol on modules 

1. Choose the modules you would like to enrol on by checking the check box under the heading ‘enrol’.

   • You must not enrol on a module that you have already completed in a previous year.
   • You can see how many places are available on the module under the heading ‘spaces left on the module’. If the module says it is full or reserved, contact the teaching school.
   • If a module has pre-requisites, co-requisites or is mutually exclusive, it will be marked with an ‘R’. Details about these requirements can be checked on the undergraduate module catalogue or taught postgraduate module catalogue. Pre-requisite means that you can only study the module if you have already completed a specific module. Co-requisite means you can only study the module if you study another specific module at the same time. Mutually exclusive means you can’t study a module at the same time as certain other modules, or if you’ve previously studied a certain module.
   • If the module has pre- and/or co-requisites for the module, you will need to confirm you meet them. You may be asked to provide proof of this later by the School. 
   • Select ‘continue’ if you meet them. 
   • Select ‘back’ if you do not meet the pre- and/or co-requisites to return to module selection and select alternative modules. 
   • If you make any module choices that cannot be approved, you may find these amended by your school at a future date without notice.  
2. Once you have chosen your modules, select ‘submit’.
3. If you have chosen module(s) with a condition (marked with ‘R’), you will be asked to confirm that you meet the conditions, then click ‘continue’.
4. Make sure you wait for the next screen to load. It might take a moment to load due to potential high traffic on the system. If you are taking discovery modules, press ‘continue’ to go to step 4. If not, click ‘checklist’ to go to the checklist and select step 5. 

Drop modules

1. Choose the modules you would like to drop by checking the check box under the heading ‘drop’ and submit your changes by clicking the ‘submit changes’ button.
2. It is possible to ‘enrol’ and ‘drop’ modules before clicking ‘submit’. This will return you to the module enrolment page which will indicate your requested changes.

Do not use the Refresh or Back toolbar buttons as this may result in an error message appearing above the optional modules rules for your programme. If this message appears, please select ‘Return to menu’ and select the ‘Module enrolment’ option again.

Choosing modules

New students can select optional modules and Discovery modules at the same time.

Discovery module enrolment for returning students opens in July, so this step will not be available when optional module enrolment opens in May. You’ll need to return in July to select your Discovery modules.

1. Select the ‘Search Discovery modules’ button.
2. In the ‘Subject area grid’ section, you can check the box for the subject area your module is in or you can use the ‘Refine search’ function that follows it to you can search for the module using keywords.
3. Select ‘module search’.
4. Choose the modules you want to enrol on by using the check boxes in the ‘Select’ column.
5. Select ‘submit’ after choosing your modules.

Contact the teaching school if a module is full as there may be a waiting list for the module.

If you wish to take a discovery module that you are unable to find using ‘Module Search’, please contact the relevant School. Some discovery modules may require an assessment of your level of expertise before you are allowed to enrol on them.  

Submitting your module choices

Select ‘checklist’ when you have finished choosing your modules.

If you make any module choices that cannot be approved, you may find these amended by your school at a future date without notice.  

If you wish to take a module that is not listed as part of your programme of study (course), please get approval from your parent school. All schools reserve the right to suspend a module at any time if, for example, staff fall ill or leave the University. If this happens, schools will let you know and attempt to provide you with an alternative choice. 

Any changes to module availability should be communicated to you by your parent school.

If you enrol on a discovery module with associated pre- and/or co-requisite(s), you will be required to confirm that you meet the requirements for the module(s) as specified in its catalogue entry.

1. You’ll be able to view the modules you are already enrolled on. These are your compulsory modules. You’ll also be able to view your ‘web enrolled’ or ‘optional’ modules. These are the modules you have selected by completing this process.
2. Check that the total number of credits for which you have enrolled is not less than the total number of credits required for your programme of study (course) and that you have a balance of credits across semesters. If it is less, you will need to use the button ‘Amend optional modules’  or ‘Amend Discovery modules’ to go back to steps 3 and/or 4 to select more modules.
3. Select the check box to confirm your module selection.
4. Select ‘continue’.
5. Make sure you sign out using the ‘Exit’ button at the top of the page  and close your browser to protect your privacy. This is especially important if you are using a shared computer.

When you’ve confirmed your module enrolment, a confirmation email will be sent to your University email address. 

If you’ve selected a Discovery module that’s also an optional module, the module and credits will be listed twice in the confirmation email. This is an error with how the email is generated, and you will not be enrolled onto the module twice. You will not need to take any further action.

When you add optional or discovery modules, or make any changes, they will show in your timetable the next day.
