As you begin another year at King’s, it’s worth reminding yourself of the important tasks you'll need to complete as you return, the services and resources you can access, and all the extracurricular activities you can get involved in. We’re delighted to welcome you back and hope you take advantage of all the support and resources available to you for the remainder of your studies.
How do I re-enrol?
Prior to the start of the academic year, you'll receive an email inviting you to complete re-enrolment at King's.
To complete re-enrolment, you’ll need to log into Student Records. Navigate to the 'My Enrolment' page where you’ll be asked to follow further instructions.
It’s important that you re-enrol as soon as you are able to do so, as access to our library services, teaching materials via KEATS, and receipt of funding will be affected if you re-enrol late.
If you have forgotten your login details, please contact the IT helpdesk via email: 88888@kcl.ac.uk.
Important to know: If you encounter any issues with completing the online enrolment task or receiving your invitation to complete re-enrolment, please get in touch with Student Records.
Important to know: Completion of re-enrolment on Student Records does not constitute in itself the right to re-enrol on your programme. This also depends on your having fulfilled all academic conditions relating to your programme of study and on all financial debts to King's having been cleared.
