New Students

Congratulations on gaining your place here at Abertay - we look forward to meeting you!

Before you start at Abertay you'll need to register with us. Our Online Registration system will open to new students from Scotland and the rest of the UK from Monday 19 August, or possibly a little earlier. Please make sure you have access to your University email account and check both it and your personal email account for updates on how to register.

If you're an international student head over to the pre-arrival guide pages to find out about your registration arrangements.

Welcome Week 

Welcome Week runs from Monday 9 September to Friday 13 September and will include tailored programmes of talks from lecturers, social events right across the week, and much more to be confirmed! We're working with Abertay Students' Association on the full schedule and will send this to you via email.
