Confirm student identity
For UK Universities, making identity checks is an essential part of student enrolment. As a Tier 4 Sponsor, a University must fulfil a number of sponsor duties, including checking that all students have valid immigration permission and the Right to Study in the UK.
Universities often have a manual document check built into their registration process. However, for large numbers of student registrations, this can be inefficient, resource intensive and prone to human error.
Making robust checks can protect your University from the risk of losing your sponsor status and suffering serious reputational damage.
