Student Regulations 2025/26
When you complete your online enrolment with Royal Holloway you agree that you have read, understood and accept to be bound by all our Regulations, codes of practice and policies. Most of our policies are about responsible behaviour. They set out your responsibilities as a student, both academic and non-academic, and set out our responsibilities to you. Breaking any of these regulations could lead to us restricting your access to some services and, in very severe cases, lead to you being expelled from Royal Holloway.
The University policies will be updated from time to time.
