Student Check-Ins

Your status at the University of Glasgow will be monitored at two re-registration check-ins during the academic year. This is in addition to attendance and engagement on your programme of study, which is monitored by your School or College.

Why is this necessary?

All Universities are required to hold up to date visa, passport and contact information for their student visa holders and other students who have immigration status in the UK.

These check-ins are done online using the UofG Helpdesk, and take place near the start of each semester.

When is my next re-registration check-in?

The immigration compliance team will email you to invite you to complete your check-in. Please check your student email and spam regularly for this correspondence near the start of each semester. If you are a new student who completed Visa Registration in September, you will not need to complete a check-in in semester 1 as well. The next check-in for you will be in semester 2.

What happens if I fail to complete the Check-in?

If you miss the check-in and do not have a valid reason, your school/college will be notified and an overall review of your attendance/engagement on your programme will be done to determine:

• If you are still present and engaged with your studies at UofG
• If you still have valid immigration status in the UK
• Whether you should be withdrawn from your programme

If you hold a Student Visa/Tier 4 visa and you are withdrawn, UofG will notify the Home Office who will curtail this visa and advise you to leave the UK.
