# Print student status letters
Student status letters are proof that you are enrolled on a course. They will show your dates of study, the name of your course and your mode of study (e.g. full time or part time).
You may need a student status letter when you:
- Open a student bank account
- Notify the Council of your student status (for council tax purposes)
- Apply for a job
- Arrange accommodation
If you are a full-time student, you can print letters yourself by following the steps below.
If you are a Part-time, Erasmus or Pre-sessional English student, you will not be able to create your own letter online. Please email engagement@coventry.ac.uk and ask for a letter or go to an InfoPoint.
# Log in to Nova
Log in to Nova (opens new window) using your University username and password.
# Create a letter by completing the template
Click on Letters and then Create Letter from the navigation menu on the left-hand side of the page. Use the drop-down menus to select the letter type (e.g. Bank letter). Once
you have completed the information fields, you can Create Letter.
# Print the letter in colour
You’ll be taken to a new page where you need to download the letter. Once downloaded, select the option to print.
Student status letters should be printed in colour.
# Get help from the InfoPoint team
