Personalise your Welcome
Learn on your feet

Walks, tours and trips
Our goal is to help you get settled in by showing you the secrets of your campus and the quirks, curiosities and sights of one of Britain’s great student cities. Part of Nottingham’s charm is that it’s really not that big (as cities go), but these tours will reveal some true hidden gems.

NTSU Freshers’ Fairs
NTSU’s Freshers’ Fairs are a showcase for everything student life has to offer — from societies, sports clubs and events to the Union’s jobs, representation projects and personal development opportunities. You’ll find everything under one roof, plus some great freebies and excellent student discounts.
Eat Global. Dine Local.
