Warwick Freshers 2013 Megathread

I called them today to confirm if the further evidence I'm gonna be sending was enough and asked the guy how long it'll take. He said that today they were dealing with evidence from 2nd August, so erm I guess you can base it on that. You should maybe call em just to confirm if youre worried I guess.

Hmm yh that what I was thinking, but im worried I may not get any bursary from warwick because my student finance has taken so long

When you upload your picture, is the picture that it shows meant to be very low quality and kind of fuzzy?

Does Warwick provide a student discount for MS Office?

Really? I was unable to upload a picture as it wouldn't accept any of them and I emailed and they said: "Once you receive your email you will be able to upload a photo to Photo ID, enrol online and create an ITS account. Your Warwick Student ID will be in your enrolment email.

Please note you will not be able to enrol online until you receive your enrolment email, please do not try to access the system before you have received your email."

On another note, do we have to bring ID? As I don't have any valid photo ID.

Yes, I emailed to get my Warwick ID Number to do just that, however once I enrolled I wasn't able to upload a photo.

I managed to upload a photo and enrol without any problems...

If you're not uploading a photo id in time, you're likely to not be able to collect your student id card at official enrolment. Not too much of an issue, you'll get it a few days later (at most two weeks I guess), but a bit of a hassle for entering the library etc.

To collect your student id, you need a valid photo ID.

This information will not be finalised until the month/two months before the actual exams. There are defined exam periods however, if you would like to know those? . They're pretty unoriginal when it comes to organising them, so you know first year exams will be week 5-7/8 of the summer term for example

What do we do about student finance now? It says I will receive the money within 3-4 working days of my university verifying my place but when will this happen? Shouldn't warwick have already verified I'm going there? I don't want to turn up and have no money and not know what to do

Mine went like this! haha but it says 'accepted' so I assume it was fine?!

Was your pic a passport pic or did you just take it from your phone?

I took mine last year with a phone.

it's fine as long as your face is clear, and your expression is neutral, and theres good lighting.

So, could it be any pic that shows your face and has good lighting? - What if your position is not straight and your body is tilted? I really do not want to upload my passport pic...

yeah pretty much

at least try to make an effort with the orientation

Nice to see you back here! . How's the job going?




Hehe, as TTO says, it happens all the time. The champions league final this year, there wasn't two rows of computers in the library that didn't have at least one stream of it running (bearing in mind this was middle of exam revision period )
