Join one of the mandatory Student Essentials sessions in Welcome Week
These are a warm welcome and introduction to different faces you’ll see at the university, plus essential info about support services, health and safety, the code of conduct, and ID cards.
Complete the two mandatory Learning Modules online
St Mary's University is committed to creating a safe, respectful and inclusive environment for everyone.
All students must complete this Harassment and Sexual Misconduct online training module on your Moodle accounts by Friday 30 October 2026 and further information can be found on the module webpage.
Please note, to access the above module you will need to Log into your University Office 365 account and set up multifactor authentication (need MFA help?), so you can log into University services. You can then use your student email address – [Your student number]@live.stmarys.ac.uk – for Office 365 and University systems.
It’s worth noting, after you enrol there’ll be a short delay until your modules appear in Moodle, our virtual learning environment.
