Welcome to Regent College London (RCL). As you prepare to move to the UK, there are a few important steps to complete so you’re ready to begin your studies with confidence.
Completing your enrolment in person
All international students must complete a face-to-face enrolment meeting before classes begin. You must visit the Enrolment Office at our Holborn Campus as soon as possible after arriving in the UK.
Address: 2-10 Princeton Street, London, WC1R 4BH
Please bring with you your:
- Passport
- Visa or e-visa documentation
- Academic qualifications
- Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS)
- Your home address and UK term-time address
Pre-enrolment support sessions
The Enrolment team runs drop-in support sessions if you need help with any outstanding enrolment, finance, or technical access issues before classes begin. Look out for an email from your Enrolment Officer with the dates.
