HE Enrolment 2023

Late Enrolment will take place in the reception of Rye Hill House on our main Rye Hill Campus from Monday 11 September. 

When you come to campus to complete your enrolment, please remember to bring with you:

• Your results or proof of qualifications
• ID
  • One of the following will be accepted: birth certificate, passport, driver's or provisional licence, bank card or photographic student ID for returning students
• National Insurance number (if known)

Without these we will not be able to fully enrol you onto your chosen course.

To apply for funding, we will also need to see evidence of your eligibility. This can include recent payslips or benefits letters.

If you are an international student, please also bring along your proof of residency. For example:

• EU settlement scheme
• Immigration documents
• Visa
• Residence permit

Yes, you can wait and one of our staff will be able to enrol you. However, your wait time will depend on how many bookings have been made on that day.

If you haven't applied yet we advise you to do this as soon as possible.

Once you have applied online, we will review your application and be in touch with your next steps. 

You can submit your application before receiving your A-Level results.

If you are waiting for exam results you will be able to complete your enrolment once you have received them. We will write to you to invite you onto campus to complete your enrolment on a date after you have received them.

If you change your mind after you have applied and would like to discuss your options, please get in touch with our Student Services team who will be able to provide course advice to ensure you find a suitable course. 

No, unfortunately we are unable to complete enrolment without a form of ID. You will be asked to either re-book an appointment or return at the end of the day, so please remember to bring your form of ID to your initial appointment.

After your successful online enrolment, we will send you a booking invitation to come onto campus at a given date and time sign your learning agreement and collect your student ID card.

Once you are enrolled, you can request a parking permit free of charge at your enrolment appointment. The permit can be used in every car park on Rye Hill campus. Please be aware that this does not guarantee a parking space, because all parking spaces are allocated on a first come, first served basis.

If you require a parking space after enrolment, you can email HEAdmin@ncl-coll.ac.uk with confirmation of your name, your student name, your car registration and your home address. You can either collect it from our reception desk, or we can post it to your current address.

Newcastle College University Centre does not offer any student accommodation, but we can suggest some great student friendly options!

Once we have confirmed that you have successfully completed the current academic year, we will email you a link to a Microsoft Office form for you to complete with any changes to your current personal information held in our Student Records system. We will also send you a booking invitation to come in and complete your enrolment on-campus and collect your learning agreement, student ID card and any other relevant documents that you will need before starting in September.

Certificates are sent by an external mailing company. They are sent within 12 weeks of the Exam Board. Exam Boards convene in July, September and January.

Please speak with your Module Leader if you require a 5-day extension to a submission deadline.

If you feel unable to submit a piece of work due to personal circumstance and you feel you require more than a 5-day extension, please complete an application for mitigation.

We also suggest you speak with your Module Leader to make them aware of your situation.

Yes, you can still enrol. However, you must be aware that as part of enrolment, fees will be payable by you in the event of Student Loan Company default for any reason (e.g. loan reassessment, cancellation of loan). It is always a good idea to apply for your loan as soon as applications open.

Once your student loan has been approved, Student Finance England will pay your tuition fee directly to Newcastle College University Centre. If you are studying a Level 7 programme (Masters degree or equivalent), you will receive a tuition payment from Student Finance England which you must pay directly to Newcastle College University Centre.

If you have applied for a Maintenance Loan, payment will be received in line with the date set out in your payment schedule from Student Finance England. Or, if you enrol after this date, it should be paid within three working days.

If you want any more information, please contact HEAdmin@ncl-coll.ac.uk.

At the point of enrolment, you will receive a fee payment factsheet containing all payment details.

Payment can be made in full using online banking.

If you wish to pay in instalments, you must select a payment plan (3 instalments or 7 instalments) at the point of enrolment. Our Credit Control department will then send you a direct debit mandate. This must be completed and returned within 72 hours from the date and time of issue. This method takes all of the stress away from you having to remember to pay each month!

You must complete an Employer Fee Payment form with your employer. Once a completed form is submitted, we will invoice your employer for your tuition fee. If you would like to be super organised and complete the form before you attend your enrolment appointment, please get in touch (HEAdmin@ncl-coll.ac.uk) and we will email it to you.

Once you are enrolled, we will provide you with a council tax exemption form at your enrolment appointment.

If you require a tax exemption form after enrolment, you can email HEAdmin@ncl-coll.ac.uk with confirmation of your name, your student number and your current address. You can either collect the form from our reception desk, have it posted to your current address, or we can send it to you via email.

Once you are enrolled, you can request a banking letter at your enrolment appointment.

If you require a letter after enrolment, you can email HEAdmin@ncl-coll.ac.uk with confirmation of your name, student number, date of birth and current address.

If you do not return a signed learning agreement until after the start of term, your maintenance payment will be paid three days after receipt of the learning agreement.
