Graduates: Next steps

If you have met all of your academic and financial conditions, you should have been asked to complete your University card form by your Department. This will allow the University to set up your registration and generate your card and email account (note: this will happen from 1st September onwards). Any delay in returning this can cause problems on arrival. If you have not yet received any communication about your University card form, please contact your Department via the email address on your offer letter. If you have any issues, please let us know.

The College Doctors have written a letter explaining how to register with them. Please complete this process as soon as possible, so that you can be registered before you come to Oxford, and to ensure that you can access medical care from the moment you arrive. If you are already registered with a surgery in Oxford and would prefer to stay with your current surgery, please email us with the details.

Once you have arrived in Oxford, you will also be able to contact or book an appointment with our College Nurse, Kinnaret. Please see the link below for further information on our welfare provision.

Please ensure that you have your NHS number available, and if you are an international student, please register with the College Doctor to get an NHS number as soon as possible.

The College Doctors will also provide a handout giving information on how to use their services; this will be uploaded here soon.

If you are unsure how the UK healthcare system works, a useful guide is available on the website of the UK Council for International Student Affairs.

If you have a disability or medical condition (including mental health conditions, and dyslexia and dyspraxia), please contact the University’s Disability Advisory Service (DAS). It is very important that you contact the DAS quickly if you require any adjustments or support so that the College can make suitable arrangements in preparation for your arrival.

Once you have returned your card form via the Graduate Admissions portal, your University IT account will be set up. You will be sent an email giving you your login details to activate your accounts, and asking you to log in to Student Self-Service to register and check your details in preparation for enrolment.  It is very important that you do this as quickly as possible as you must have completed this part of online registration before we can give you your University card and enrol you (see section 6 of this page).

The details of our IT systems are linked below. We completely appreciate that this may look daunting, but please don’t worry – there will plenty of opportunties to ask questions and access support once you join us.

The College’s IT Office will hold an online IT induction in late September, to help you set up all the key IT systems and accounts you will need as a Brasenose student. If you can’t attend, a recording will also be made available.

If you are coming to Oxford on a student visa, we ask that you submit a copy of your documents before we can complete your enrolment. Please follow the instructions on the submission portal below; you will need a scan of your passport and your e-Visa share code.

Once you have arrived in Oxford, please come and collect your University card and complete your enrolment in person. You will receive further information about the arrangements for this in due course.

You are all invited to our Graduate Freshers’ Dinner, which will be held on Wednesday 7th October. Please confirm your attendance and provide your dietary information via the link below. Again, if you have any trouble submitting your preferences, please contact us.
