Registration for online distance learning students

Information about registration for online distance learning students

Thank you for completing online registration.

Please email copies of your required documents to the Online Degrees Team email: online-degrees@herts.ac.uk . Please do this without delay.

Registration Checks

Your registration will be completed remotely by our UH Online Team.

We will use the documents you have emailed in. There will be no further action required from you, unless we find required documents are missing or they cannot be read on our systems. You do not need to log on to the Registration Portal.

Once satisfied that you have met both criteria for registration, your student record will be marked ready to register.  The earliest you could become a fully registered student is 14 days prior to the start date of your course. 

Once you are a fully registered student of the University of Hertfordshire you will incur any applicable tuition fees in line with the University’s Fees and Finance Policy.  The University will then notify Student Finance England (or the relevant awarding body) of your registration.

You can see your registration status in StudyNet, this should change from self-registered to registered.  If this is taking an unusually long time (more than a couple of days) please check that you have uploaded your documents and check that you have not received any emails requesting further documentation.  If you think you should now be registered but your student record has not updated please contact online-degrees@herts.ac.uk.
