As part of online enrolment, you will have checked and provided us with some of your personal details. If any of these have changed, you should notify a member of the Admissions team at registration. Alternatively, you are welcome to email the team at admissions@harper-adams.ac.uk at any point in advance of registration. Once you are a registered student you will be able to use the self-service function within e-Vision, our student portal. 

These will be given out as part of your academic induction with the Course Team, during the first week, once you have had opportunity to choose any optional modules. As timetables are personalised and based on the modules you select, we are unable to provide them in advance. You should expect initially to be in attendance between 9am and 6pm Monday to Friday until your timetable is confirmed. 

It is essential that you provide ID at enrolment - this forms part of our checks to ensure that all students have the right to study in the UK. Without appropriate ID you will only be able to provisionally register for your course, meaning that you will not have access to all student facilities and you will also be unable to access your student loan.

Please read our guidance on which documents you will need to bring with you for more information.

A list of clothing and equipment needed for specific courses can be found on our website within the Please also refer to the accommodation check list (found under Documents on our accommodation webpage) for other things you need to consider if you are living on site. Please ensure that you have made the necessary arrangements to have everything you need in time for commencing the course. If you have any difficulty determining what you need and how to find it, please contact the Admissions Team and we will do our best to help.  

All students can use either of our two self-service launderettes on campus – one is located by Jebb hall, and the other in between Leverhulme and Jerman. The laundrettes are operated by Circuit, for details of how these work (including how-to videos and laundry tips!) please . Current prices are £2.50 per wash and £1.20 for tumble dryers (50 mins). 

Unfortunately not. No pets are allowed on campus. Please see our Animals on Campus Policy for further details. This is to ensure the welfare of animals – a student bedroom is not the ideal environment for pets unfortunately! Please be aware that the majority of rented accommodation off-campus in the local area are unlikely to allow pets although we know national legislation may be changing soon which might affect private housing.  

Yes, but they cannot come on campus and we suggest you don't bring them until you are fully settled in.

For further details about this, and for information about other local yards, email admissions@harper-adams.ac.uk.

Sorry, unfortunately not. The rooms are not available until after you have registered on registration day. There are many . Postgraduate students and those attending the International Welcome, who have a different arrival date, should refer to the information that they have been provided with regards to their start and move in dates and liaise with the Accommodation Team on arrival arrangements. 

This is the day when we ask all new undergraduate students to come to the campus to complete the registration process, and, for those of you living on campus, for you to be able to collect your room key and settle in to your accommodation. Registration will be on different days depending on whether you are resident on campus or not. Specific registration times and locations will be confirmed to students nearer the time.

Many new students come with someone on that first day, either so they can get a lift or to help them get settled into their accommodation, but we do recommend keeping numbers to a minimum as there will be a lot of students moving in at the same time. Maybe not the right day to have the whole family visit the campus – many other opportunities for that! The Residential Check-In is quite straight forward but you may want their help to ensure you have done everything you need to do that day: get registered, collect your key, unpack and get some last minute bits from the shops, however, many students like to do this themselves. After this, we recommend guests leave so that you can get to know others who have just arrived and join in the activities. 

Unfortunately, on-campus accommodation is not available for guests. There are . 

On campus accommodation includes standard contents cover from Endsleigh, details of this will be included as part of your accommodation acceptance process. We would advise you to read this carefully, and arrange additional insurance where required. You should also take steps to ensure the safety of your belongings such as closing windows and keeping doors to the room and flat/house locked when not present or being aware of what might be going on. Equally all students must not prop open the front door to any residential buildings – the same common sense that you would apply at home, apply it in your student accommodation to help keep your personal belongings safe. 

If you will be living off campus, you are strongly advised to arrange insurance cover for your personal belongings. Many insurance companies offer reasonably priced contents insurance for students and landlords may require to see evidence of such before you move in.

The University accepts no responsibility whatsoever for loss or damage, by theft, fire or other cause, of personal property or money on campus. 

If you have a form that requires a signature and stamp from the University to confirm that you have registered, please notify a member of the Admissions Team at registration who will be able to help you. Please note that due to the numbers of students registering on this day, we may not be able to return the form to you the same day. This may be for example, medical support or a pension. If you prefer you are welcome to call in to see Student Records, Room FS1 in the Faccenda Centre.

The on-site catering facilities will be open from registration day onwards. Food will be provided for all new students during the evening activities on Sunday 22 September. Please note that if you are not in catered halls you should expect to pay for, or provide, your own food from Monday 23 September onwards.
