Excellence in education
Welcome to Essex
Whether you're a new starter or a returning student, we hope you have a fantastic year as a member of our global community.
If this is your first year at Essex, our Welcome pages, are a great place to find the information you need during your first week.
If you're joining us again, you know what you're doing, right?
If not, the Student Services Hub is the place to go for the answers you need.
