You will need to be fully registered before we can issue you a student letter. This service is available to students studying with the University of Greenwich who are based on one of our three main campuses (Greenwich, Avery Hill or Medway).
If you are a continuing student, you will need to make sure you have completed online registration before we can issue you a letter. If you are a new student, you will need to complete online registration and document checks, and collect your ID card before we can issue you a letter.
Approximately 2 hours after you are fully registered, you can get a digital letter by logging into the Digital Student Centre and clicking on the 'My Documents' button.
Depending on who you need to prove your student status to, you can request different types of letters:
- Confirmation of Student Status: a letter that proves your student status, home address (and term time address if applicable) and the university’s term dates. This can be given to your employer, GP, embassy, or anyone who needs to know you are a student;
- Council Tax Exemption: for eligible students to support council tax reduction/exemption;
- Bank: to support opening a bank account, or to change your address with your current bank – you will need to add the name of the bank before your letter can be generated.
Please make sure your permanent and term time addresses are active and up to date on the portal so they show up correctly on your letters. You can find more information on our student letters webpage.
