Enrolment and Registration at the University of Warwick

When requested for financial information, please select the following options:

Any costs associated with travel to the UK to begin study, student visa costs and health surcharge must be covered by you directly as MIBTP funding does not provide for this.

International Students

To ensure a smooth enrolment process, please ensure you upload both your passport and visa information during online registration.

The University of Warwick Immigration Services department requires an extra step to cover the VISA requirements of international students: a letter from your home university. The MIBTP admin team will sort this step for you, but you will not be able to finish the Enrolment process until this step is completed. You will also be contacted directly by our Student Immigration and Compliance team to advise you on documentation and Right-to-Study checks. Please email MIBTP@warwick.ac.uk and your local MIBTP admin contact if you have any queries.
