About online registration

At the start of every academic session the University asks its students to confirm that they agree to abide by the statutes and regulations of the University and to be a member of the University.

Only when a student makes this commitment will they be 'registered' as a student.

The University of Birmingham requires all of its students to register annually.

  • Students access the web registration pages via the student portal at www.my.bham.ac.uk
  • Students are asked to view and amend their personal details as part of online registration.
  • Students are asked to pay their fees during online registration.
  • When a student registers they agree to abide by the regulations, ordinances and statutes of this University.
  • This is an essential part of University life, it is rather like signing a contract of employment, at the point of registration the student agrees to fulfil the expectations of the University and is informed of what the University will provide in return.
  • Copies of the University regulations, ordinances and statutes are available at www.as.bham.ac.uk/legislation.

How to register

From 20th July all students will be sent a registration pack.  The registration pack has been designed to help you register online prior to arriving at the University of Birmingham and to help you make the most of the first weeks of your programme of study.

Accessing the registration pages

The registration pack contains:

  • The Student Guide to Registration
  • Your registration letter containing your username and password
  • A pre-paid envelope to pay your fees
  • Welcome guide and information

All new students to the University will receive a registration letter.  The letter welcomes students to the new academic session of the University and asks them to register online at www.my.bham.ac.uk.

The registration letter will contain your (AD) username and (AD) password.  You will need these to gain access to the student portal and online registration.

To access the registration pages go to www.my.bham.ac.uk.  Enter your username and password in the 'Secure Access Login' fields and then click on the 'Login' button.

If you have difficulties logging in to the Student Portal, log a call to the registration helpdesk at ehelpdesk.bham.ac.uk/eua/webreg or call 0121 414 9009 to speak to a Registration Help Assistant.

Once in the Student Portal, click on the 'My Programme' tab at the top of the screen.  Then click on the folder for 'Online Registration' and click on the link to 'Registration'.

Completing online registration

The Online Registration Main Menu is split into 8 easy to follow stages.  You will click on the link to each of the stages and check, enter and amend the information currently held about you.

It is your responsibility to make sure that this information is accurate and up-to-date.

If this changes throughout the year (e.g, your address) you must log back into the Online Registration Main Menu and update the relevant information,

If your data is incorrect or out of date it may affect core functions that the University carries out on your behalf.

The University provides local councils with an electronic list of students eligible to be considered for Council Tax Exemption.  Local Councils will exempt properties only occupied by students.  If we are unable to provide details of your address we cannot prove your qualification for exemption.
