Re-registration

It’s important to re-register as a student at the start of each year of your course. This confirms that you are still studying with us and ensures that you receive your student loan on time.

You can re-register online using MyHud, the University's online portal. This is available from 1^st August onwards each year for most students. We will email you in advance to let you know how to do this.

Please note that any financial support can only be paid to you after term officially starts regardless of whether you complete your re-registration before this. However, completing your re-registration in good time helps to ensure there are no delays in the release of any money you are due to be paid by the Student Loan Company (or Student Awards Agency Scotland or Student Finance Wales).

Change of personal details

You can keep your home or contact address up to date by logging on to MyHud.

It is very important that we have your up to date current name as this will be printed on your graduation certificate. Please email studentrecords@hud.ac.uk with any change of any name documents including gender identity changes.
