Enrolling on your course and libraries


Enrolment information

 
The pamphlet 'Westminster Start' gives dates for enrolment and explains what happens at enrolment. You should receive your specific course enrolment information before leaving home. If you have not received your enrolment information nearing the time you are due to leave home then contact the admissions office relating to your course.
 
There is no teaching during enrolment week as this is when students register with the University, attend their course induction and learn about student facilities. More information about the formal requirements for enrolment onto postgraduate course can be found by following the link. There is also an International Student Welcome Programme that normally runs the week before enrolment for full degree students and an orientation for study abroad and exchange students.

Libraries

 

University of Westminster's libraries

The University of Westminster has an integrated system of libraries supporting its faculties. You may use the resources of all the University of Westminster's libraries.
 
Services include inter-site loans, on-line searching, photocopying, library publications; micro labs available for class and personal use. An increasing number of information databases are becoming accessible from PCs and on CD-ROM in the libraries.
 
To register with the appropriate site library, please show a valid University of Westminster ID card, which you will receive once you are fully enrolled. A tour of the University of Westminster's libraries is included in induction week. If you cannot attend, library staffs are always willing to help you use the libraries. Feel free to ask them any questions you have about the library system.
 

Public libraries

You will find public libraries in every locality. Membership of your local public library is free of charge and you need only to provide proof of residence to be able to borrow book. All libraries should have a reference section where you may be able to consult large dictionaries and encyclopaedias. The public libraries are also excellent sources of information. They stock national and local newspapers and a wide variety of magazines, which can be read free of charge. In the library entrance there will usually be a notice board with local information.
