Distance Learning

There are two stages to the registration process. 

The first stage is an online registration task. The details of the online registration will be emailed to you as soon as your admission place is confirmed at Brunel. The purpose of the online registration is for the University to confirm your personal details, including your next of kin, and your financial details (such as if you will be paying your fees as a one-off or in instalments). If you are an overseas student we will also ask for your passport and visa details in order to meet the UKBA compliance.

The second stage is the registration checks. As a distance learning student you can complete these online as well.

Online Registration (Stage 1)

You will have received an email explaining how to complete the first part of your registration through Brunel's online student portal, eVision.

Login to eVision
Your initial login details for eVision are:
Username:	Student ID Number
Password:	Date of birth in six digit format (DDMMYY)

You will be asked to choose a new password the first time you log in to eVision. If you logged in to eVision previously, for example to track your application, then you will already have changed your password and should use that password. If you have forgotten your password contact the Student Centre who can reset it for you, or alternatively use the forgotten password option on screen.

My Checklist

Within eVision click on “my Checklist” and complete all sections of the task available to you. Note that the sections of the task are specific to you and may not include all of the following:

Provisional Registration Document

Once you have completed all elements of the Registration Checklist and have a green tick by each of the compulsory sections, your registration status will change to provisionally registered. At this point you will be able to print your "Provisional Registration Document" which you should bring with you when you come to Brunel to complete Part Two.

Brunel Network Account

Your Brunel network account and email address will be allocated to you once you complete the Checklist and are provisionally registered. Allow an hour after completing the task then log back into eVision and return to “my Checklist” – scroll down to the bottom of the page for details of your network account and email details. Note that the Brunel email account is the one we will use to correspond with you so you should check it regularly throughout your time at Brunel.

Registration Checks (Stage 2)

To complete your registration you need to complete your qualifications check. To do this we need to see the original versions of your certificates. If you are in the UK and are able to bring these to the Admissions Office please do so; if not then please send a certified copy of your certificate(s) to the Admissions Office – please do not send original documents in the post as they can become lost. We must receive a certified copy or see the original certificates before you can be registered with the University or receive your course documentation so please send this as soon as possible. If you have already provided these to the Admissions Office then your status should show as being fully enrolled and there is nothing further to do and your School will send your course material to you.

Please send a certified copy of your results, clearly stating your name, Brunel student number, and the course you have applied for to the Admissions Office at the address below. If your results are not given in English, please provide a certified translation.

Admissions Office, Brunel University, Uxbridge Middlesex UB8 3PH, UK

Once we have received either certified copies or seen your original certificates we will be able to fully register you with the University. You will be able to verify that this has happened via eVision once we have received your documents (please allow up to 48 hours from receipt of documents before checking). Once this has been completed your School will send your course material to you.
