University of East London Enrolment
GIS is a partner of the University of East London (UEL), who accredit GIS courses and validate awards offered. If you are studying a GIS course which is validated by UEL, there are two parts to our enrolment process, and you will receive emails from both UEL and GIS to complete the respective enrolment tasks.
What is enrolment?
Enrolment is the process you need to complete to become an official GIS student. You must complete enrolment at the start of every academic year of study.
Enrolment is an important part of your student journey with us. The team are here to help you through the process and provide support wherever you need it. We strongly recommend you complete enrolment as soon as possible.
Our experience shows it is beneficial to enrol prior to Orientation Week – Students who complete their enrolment before Orientation Week hit the ground running and perform better on their degree.
Enrolment is completely online and involves you providing up-to-date information for your student record. It consists of 2 parts:
- Completing your consents form with GIS
- Completing your enrolment with UEL (Click here for UEL enrolment information)
Enrolment is a crucial part of your student journey, as it gives you access to:
- Your student loan – if you have been awarded a student loan, completing your enrolment will allow UEL to release your loan.
- GIS Central – your go-to resource where you will have access to your courses, events, key policy information, and services to support your academic and professional journey.
- GIS Collab – your new innovative learner management platform, designed to centralise all academic digital learning resources and tools in one accessible location to enhance and support your learning journey.
- GIS’ exclusive Industry Insight Series – a year long programme providing exclusive access to professional and experts from the global sports industry
- Your learning schedule – within GIS Collab you will be able to track your academic progress and access your live session timetable
- UEL’s campus facilities
Enrolment will take place in 2 parts and as such you will need 2 separate usernames and passwords. One for GIS and one for UEL.
Enrolment with GIS
This will involve completing a short consent form and agreeing to GIS policies and should only take a few minutes to complete.
