Whether you’re based at UA92 Main Campus or the UA92 Business School, we will be running campus tours and introducing you to some of the main facilities, so you can familiarise yourself with your new surroundings.
DIGITAL SET UP
Setting up your IT and getting access to your digital platforms is a crucial part of preparing for your studies. You will need access to Teams and your student email so you can keep up to date on what’s happening, access important documents and communicate with your academics and support team. There will be sessions during induction to support you with this, so please make sure you attend!

UA92 has access to LU Library (Lancaster University’s) digital library. You will have access to all the digitised academic texts you need without having to wait for books to be returned. There are induction sessions in Week 3 of each block to walk you through how to access the library and find the books you need! This will be very useful when you start your academic studies.

As part of the registration process, you will need to complete Student Check-in on campus with our registration team. There will be various drop-in sessions throughout the week so you can drop-in at any time and complete registration. Once this is complete, your student card will be prepared for collection.
