Before you start at Lincoln College, you will need to enroll. Enrollment consists of your College Registration and your University Registration (both completed online before your arrival) and your In-Person Verification, completed in person upon your arrival at College.

College Registration

There are a number of college forms that must be completed and returned before you join us as a new student. Your college forms must be submitted by Monday 7 September 2026 at the very latest. Please follow the step-by-step guide below to ensure you've completed all pre-arrival activities:

Step 1: Sign the declaration of your Student College Contract

Step 2: Read the Bursar's letter on fees and charges

Step 3: Register at the King Edward Street at the Northgate Medical Practice

Before registering, please read the following documents:

• Your letter from the King Edward Street at the Northgate Medical Practice.
• Information from the King Edward Street at the Northgate Medical Practice about how your data is used, as well as the NHS app and other NHS services.

You are exempt from this step if you are either already registered as you are an Oxford student or are registering at another Oxford GP surgery.

Step 4: Complete the College Form online

The College Form requires the following to be uploaded: the signed declaration of your Student College Contract, a passport-style photo.

Step 5: If you are an international student, upload copies of your passport and visa to our secure Visa Portal.

Please see our international students page for further info.  If you have not received your visa documentation by 7 September, you should complete steps 1-4 above by the deadline, and then upload your visa documentation as soon as it is available.

Please complete all of the above steps by Monday 7 September 2026; they are essential to you registering as a student and starting at Lincoln College.

Step 6: Once you have completed all of the above tasks, sign up for an In-Person Verification session.

Steps 7 and 8 should be completed by 30 September 2026 at the latest; you will need your SSO to complete these tasks. If you have submitted your card form to your department, your SSO is being processed; it can take up to 14 days to generate an SSO account

Step 7: Complete the Compulsory Online Harassment and Sexual Misconduct Training

All incoming graduate students are required to complete online Harassment and Sexual Misconduct training and Equality and Diversity training before completing their online University registration. This training will be available from 1 September 2026; you will need to log in with your SSO to access it. If you have returned the card form sent to you by your Faculty, you should receive your SSO shortly.

Step 8: Submit your Bank Details to the Accounts Office

Please submit your UK bank details to our Accounts Office; the College will use these details to pay any grants or awards throughout your enrolment. If at any point you close or change your bank account, please make sure to update it. You will need your SSO to complete this form.

University Registration

The University uses an online registration system. They will contact you directly with instructions; you should complete your University Registration as soon as possible after receiving the email. Please see the University registration guide for more details.
