Campus Enrolment

You will receive an email notification when it is time to pre-enrol online for your programme.

As part of the online pre-enrolment process, you will activate your LSE network and email accounts. Once you have completed online pre-enrolment and activated your accounts, you will have access to online resources and teaching after approximately one hour's time once our systems have updated. The online pre-enrolment process will help to ensure that we have all the necessary and up to date information about you, including your current plans for arrival on campus.

As part of the online pre-enrolment process you will need to:

• Check and update, if necessary, your addresses, emergency contact details and the monitoring information that you provided when you applied.
• Tell us when you will join us in London. Students are expected to arrive in London for the start of their programme. However, some students may, exceptionally, not be able to arrive in London at the start of their studies due to coronavirus travel restrictions. 
• Provide some additional information for the Careers Team – this is to help us better understand how we can best support you.
• Provide some additional information about caring responsibilities - this is to help us better understand caring responsibilities of the LSE student community in order to appropriately align our services.
• Provide some information about your COVID-19 vaccinations - LSE is working hard to keep its community safe and to provide a world leading education for our new and returning students. We would be grateful for you could answer these questions as this information will help with the planning of any response required.
• Identity documents - if you are not expecting to attend in-person teaching from the beginning of your main programme, you will be asked to upload a clear image/scan of the photograph page of your current passport and, where relevant - and if available at this time - evidence of your immigration permission for the UK.
• Confirm your acceptance of the updated Conditions of Registration (CoR). The current CoR includes additional statements related to our response to COVID-19 and online teaching.
• Download your Pre-enrolment Pass that you can use on campus for temporary access when you first arrive.
• Remember that online enrolment is only the first part of the overall enrolment process. When you arrive on campus, you will be required to attend a campus enrolment session. You will only become a fully enrolled student with access to the LSE’s on campus, physical resources and in-person teaching after you have completed on campus enrolment.  

It is very important that you attend campus enrolment.

Campus enrolment takes place in-person and is where we will check your official documents, including passport and visa. Please ensure that all admissions conditions have been completed as we cannot carry out campus enrolment until all conditions have been met.

Once you have completed campus enrolment, you will be issued your LSE Card, giving you access to campus and on-campus teaching and services.

 For your on-campus enrolment session please ensure that: 

• You attend only the session for which you have been allocated; 
• You have checked on your Graduate Admissions Application Tracker that there are no outstanding requirements that need to be completed before you come to the PhD Academy for on campus enrolment. We will not be able to complete your enrolment if there are outstanding requirements.

Access is via the Portugal Street entrance. Please do not go via the 4th floor of the Library as the inter-connecting door is closed. 

When you campus enrol we are legally required to check your eligibility to study in the UK. We do this by checking various documents. The documents you'll need vary depending on your nationality and visa (if applicable). If you do not bring the appropriate identification documents, we will not be able to campus enrol you.

For details of what you need to bring with you please visit the "what to bring to campus enrolement" page.

In order to avoid delaying your campus enrolment, please ensure that you have submitted all required documents to Graduate Admissions in good time. 

 In accordance with UK Home Office requirements, the School is required to take a scan of ALL students' passports at campus enrolment. 

Instructions on how to activate your email can be found here.
