Next Steps

We're delighted that you've chosen to join our creative community at Arts University Bournemouth. We can't wait to see what you'll create.

Here to help you get settled in

Once you've met all of your offer conditions and enrolment opens we'll send you two emails.

One email will invite you to complete Online Enrolment. This will require you to upload a passport-style photograph which will be used to create your AUB Student ID card. You'll also need to upload scans or photographs of your identification. You will need to complete Online Enrolment as soon as possible – you can't start your course until you have completed Online Enrolment.
The second email will contain instructions on how to set up your AUB student login. Once completed this will give you access to your AUB email account, the myAUB app (where your timetable will appear) as well as access to the free software listed below and discounted hardware from Apple and Dell.

Online Enrolment will open in September 2024. If you haven't received emails from the AUB Admissions team about your application by this date, please contact admissions@aub.ac.uk ASAP to ensure that your application has your correct email address. If you have any queries about your Online Enrolment, please contact studentrecords@aub.ac.uk.

Before you arrive

If your offer is still conditional, you still need to send us your results (unless we get them from UCAS). Even if you haven’t met the exact conditions of your offer it’s important that we have your results so we can make a decision – we might still offer you a place if we’re confident you have the potential to succeed.

If you applied to us using UCAS

UCAS will receive some exam results directly from exam boards and send them on to us. This includes results for:

A/S, A levels and EPQs, from AQA, WJEC, Eduqas, OCR, CCEA, Cambridge International and Pearson
Welsh Baccalaureate
BTEC (including BTEC Foundation Diploma in Art and Design)
OCR Cambridge Technicals
International Baccalaureate
SQA Scottish Highers, Advanced Highers, HNCs and HNDs
Access to HE Diplomas
T Levels
Irish Leaving Certificates
UAL Foundation Diploma in Art and Diploma, Level 3 Diplomas and Extended Diplomas
Level 3 qualifications from VTCT, NCFE and some others

UCAS have some more details on their website. If your qualifications aren’t on this list (including GCSE results), or you applied to us using the application form on our website, then you’ll need to send evidence of your results to our Admissions team directly.

Sending your results

Please email your proof of results to admissions@aub.ac.uk Don’t forget to include your name, course and AUB ID number on the email so we can find your application.

In order to process your results we need clear scans/photographs that show your full name, the qualification name, the subject studied and the result grade and the name of your exam centre. We can't accept an email from you with your results listed - we need a photo or scan of your certificate/transcript (or if you’ve only just got your results, we can accept your results slip instead).

English language qualifications

If your offer conditions ask for IELTS or another accepted English language qualification, we’ll need those to be sent through too. Please make sure you’re taking the right test for your AUB course – there’s a handy list on our website.

If you have any questions about our accepted English language qualifications then get in touch – please email the Admissions team, with the subject line: “English language qualifications”.

There are two elements to your enrolment at AUB. You'll be required to:

Complete Online Enrolment before you arrive.
Attend a Face-to-Face Registration session when you arrive.

For your Online Enrolment, you'll need:

A head and shoulders photo of you (like a passport photo) for your AUB Student ID Card.
Scans or photographs of your identification. The identification we require depends on your nationality and visa status.

Online enrolment will be available on your AUB Applicant Portal so make sure you know your login details. If you have any problems logging in check out our Applicant FAQs on our Apply page or if you haven't received emails from us about your application, then please contact admissions@aub.ac.uk ASAP for help.

For your Face-to-Face Registration we'll need you to bring along your identification in person. Student ID cards are produced once we've seen the correct documentation from you, and should be able to be collected during your Face-to-Face Registration session.

UK students:

Please have photographs or scans of one of the following options of ID:

Full valid passport
Photo ID (e.g. driving licence) plus either correspondence from Student Loans Company/Student Finance England or original birth/adoption certificate

A driving licence alone won't be accepted without the correct accompanying documents as listed in option two.

If you’ve taken a loan out with Student Finance England, you’ll need to complete the Online Enrolment before we can confirm your registration. Once completed, SFE will release your maintenance loan to you on the first day of term.
