Returning students
Information for current students returning to continue their studiesRe-enrol
To continue your studies, you must re-enrol each academic year.
After you've got your results from the previous academic year, and the re-enrolment system has opened, we'll send an email to your LSBU address inviting you to re-enrol, along with all the information you'll need and a link to the re-enrolment portal.
If you are taking re-sit exams, you'll get your email later – once your re-sits are completed and you have received your results.
If you interrupted during the last academic year and are intending on returning this year, please contact the course administration team via MyAccount who will arrange for your IT account to be reinstated.
If you have any questions about re-enrolment, please see our re-enrolment FAQs
