Completing your Identity Check
You'll need to complete an Identity (ID) Check in order to enrol. An ID Check is an essential part of enrolment: it enables us to verify your identity, ensure that we have your correct personal details registered and confirms your right to study in the UK.
The required Identity Documents for UK and Irish nationals is detailed in the below table. Your document(s) must be valid (in date and not expired).
If you have dual nationality that includes the UK and you have a valid UK passport you should present this as you shouldn’t then require a visa.

Once you have submitted the form, a staff member will review it (from 14 September 2024) and your Start of Session Checklist will update after this.
