University is a great environment overall and the facilities are very good. Wifi can be glitchy at times but gets better.
Fantastic teaching and support! Brackenhurst campus has a fun and friendly vibe
I like living close to the uni, the price isn’t bad either
My time at Nottingham Trent University was solid. While it may not boast the prestige of some elite institutions, NTU offers a decent education with dedicated faculty who provide support and guidance. The campus facilities are sufficient, and the community is welcoming. Overall, Nottingham Trent University provides a satisfactory university experience for those seeking a practical education without the frills of more prestigious schools.
Thank you for your feedback! We are pleased you are enjoying Nottingham Trent and if you have any further ideas for improving our University please do let us know by completing the Ask NTU Form on our website.
Studying at NTU has been an amazing experience so far. My course, (Product Design BSc) gives you access to amazing facilities, including wood workshop, metal workshop, and several machines such as 3D printers, laser cutters and more. The cohort is also usually really small so you get lots of tutor contact time. The employability team is also very helpful and supportive when it comes to looking for a placement. The NTSU also releases new activities that students can try every week, which is a great way to unwind and meet other students after a long day of lectures. The boots library is also an amazing resource with lots of study spaces and different noise levels to suit you.
Hi, thank you for your review of Nottingham Trent! We pride ourselves on our wonderful facilities and are always trying to expand and enhance these spaces for our students. Our libraries offer all students across all campuses to access their resources both online and physically. The Libraries are usually open 24/7 during term time.
The uni experience here is great. The people you meet are very friendly and easy to get along with, as well are the very helpful staff here too. The location is great and right in the heart of the city centre.
Kobi is the best person to see!!!
I joined NTU in 2022 after changing course from Computer Science (studying at a different university) to Real Estate and it was the best decision I could have made. Firstly, I am now studying a course I am truly passionate about and additionally studying at one of the best universities in the country for Real Estate. The lectures are second to none, all are passionate and due to all of the having worked in industry provide valuable insights into our future career paths. The course consists of lectures and seminars all delivered in person. We also get guest lectures on occasion to come & talk about future careers and lecture on their areas of expertise. NTU delivers great quality teaching & support through the employability department to help gain employment after graduation and placements/internships. The social life at NTU is great with many societies and clubs available to join should you wish to. Also, Nottingham has a great nightlife which is great for making friends & relaxing.
We are so pleased to hear that you are happy on your BSc (Hons) Real Estate course at NTU! As part of the School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment you are part of 4,000 students who study under this academic school which is divided into five key departments. This amazing academic school is filled with all the right learning to help you achieve the most out of your degree.
The school excels in course quality, providing a robust curriculum that engages students and prepares them for future endeavors. The vibrant social life enhances the overall experience, fostering friendships and a sense of community. The campus environment, with its conducive learning spaces and green surroundings, contributes to a positive atmosphere that stimulates both academic and personal growth.

NTU has a lot of clubs and societies where we get to socialise and build our confidence, I have not even had one bad experience with NTU all lecturers are supportive and we have access to every thing we need
Internet problems can arise in the Lecture theatres which is problematic.
Good uni with diversity student background
The Internet access is fast and reliable. The staff are friendly and always willing to help and provide guidance. The facilities are of good quality. The student union is inclusive and a nice place to be.
really good & would recommend to friends & family. the atmosphere is fantastic & there is always something going on. I haven’t really got a bad word to say about the University in any way
We are very pleased to hear you are enjoying your time with us and that you have enjoyed the experience of living in Nottingham. We always welcome this feedback so we can ensure we provide you with the best experience.
NTU is in a great university for business and SU saturday is great
I have thoroughly enjoyed studying marketing at Nottingham Trent.
As its a very large uni in terms of student numbers, there is a very wide range of opportunities in sports and other clubs and societies. The union is much better than other unis I have visited in terms of club nights and events.
As you also mentioned there are lots of ways to get involved including the course societies run via the Students' Union or Academic Schools. Thank you again for sharing your experiences with our prospective students!
It’s really good and I enjoyed it a lot
Attending NTU has been an incredibly enriching experience. From the stimulating academic environment to the vibrant campus life, every aspect of my time here has exceeded expectations. The dedicated faculty members have not only imparted valuable knowledge but have also been approachable mentors, fostering a conducive learning atmosphere. The plethora of extracurricular activities and student organizations have allowed me to explore my interests, develop leadership skills, and forge lifelong friendships. Overall, NTU has provided me with the resources and support needed to thrive academically, socially, and personally, making it an unforgettable chapter in my educational journey.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with our prospective students! We are so pleased that you have been able to excel in your academic and personal life. We hope you continue to make the most of the opportunities and facilties we have to offer.
Got to connect with a lot of people from different backgrounds. Good support from staff and student union. Overall a good experience
Dream university, very helpful, love the facilities and people
If you live close to campus, it's great , there are alot of societies to chose from, the careers services are always open to help the campus WiFi can be better but overall I'm satisfied.
Nottingham Trent University (NTU) offers a rich and diverse experience for students, with several noteworthy highlights and challenges.

We aim to provide "a student experience like no other" for all the students and we do this by creating opportunities, sharing knowledge and support you through the student journey from start to finish. Thank you for sharing this information with prospective students!
The Clifton campus is quite the place. Buses run every 10 mins 24/7 during term time to get you to the city and safely back to campus on big nights outs such as Wednesday- Ocean night! Got the gym right on campus and a 24/7 open library too.
I am the student of Nottingham Trent University and as the 1st year student I can share my new experince of studying there. Also, I have previous experience of studying in Ukraine, so I can compare these two absolutely different systems. I really appreciate the support systen of NTU, they helped me a lot with my application in September and were in touch with me all the time, It made me feel calmer and safer in my difficult situation. Currently, if i have any issues or questions to ask, i always call to NTU support team, i might wait for a long time if they are busy or it might take them a while to answer to the email, but it`s only because lots of students prefer to use their support and take information from them. At the end, they will always answer and provide necessary advise. What about the campus, I am studying in Clifton Campus and there is a nice, very cozy and comfortable area for students. There we can find useful facilities and what i like the most, a lot of really cool p
Thank you for sharing your experience of applying to NTU and the support you received during this stage of the process. We are glad to hear you feel supported and know where to look for additional support when needed. We hope you are settling in at Clifton Campus and that you have had a change to explore all the facilities on offer.
Very nice campus big and teachers are very charming and helpfull
good student life and convenient uni accommodation
The campus is modern and has everything you could need all in one place. There’s no more than a 5minute walk to get anywhere on campus from any other point. I’ve not joined any society’s myself (I haven’t found any need but I’ll probably join some next year) but there is something for everyone and even if there is not something for you it’s easy to start your own society for it. The student union (for me) is usually used for a more quiet night for just chatting or playing board games with friends. There’s much more to do in the city centre and it is only a half an hour bus away so it is really handy, they run till just before 4am so it’s great for nights out. My course has a big push on careers after uni it really tries to prepare you for it (even when your in your first year). The WiFi on campus is fine sometimes it takes a while for things to load. The accommodation WiFi isn’t the greatest though I have to reconnect every time i get back to my room so it’s a bit annoying.
We are pleased to hear you like the convenience of getting around campus. Our new and existing students can all access the online MazeMap to help them find buildings, teaching rooms and lecture theatres. We are glad you have found lots to do whilst living in Nottingham and hope you continue to get involved in different events and activities.
I study on brackenhurst campus, it’s a beautiful, rural campus, nice walks, great places to study with great views! Generally speedy WiFi in all study areas and halls, Very few (3) societies operate from brackenhurst campus, hardly any variety, everything else requires travelling an hour each way to the city and many of us choose not to get involved due to finances and commitment of travel time.
Nottingham Trent uni has been a great place for me to study business. The location of my campus in the city is great and super close to my student hall’s accommodation. My course has been interesting and lots of new content constantly appears every week, which keeps the course engaging. My tutors and lectures have mostly been great, but you’re always bound to get your share if average teachers and incredible teachers. The liveliness if the city is amazing, everything is so close together that it makes exploring new places with your friends easy and enjoyable. The clubs and societies are average, I haven’t joined too many or taken part in too much because I can see there isn’t too much they offer. My student halls are great, from the location to the comfort of my room. My shared kitchen gets cleaned weekly and it’s fine cooking with six flatmates.
The student support is fantastic, and the social life is great. The course content is well explained and lecturers care about their subject areas. Would definitely recommend to friends.
Excellent University environment, members of the community take pride, all the teaching staff are incredibly friendly and caring, keen to support and want the best outcomes for students.
It’s very good and efficient .its easy to travel as it is located in the city centre.
Easy university :) teachers are helpful and buildings are easy to navigate
Decent decent decent decent decent
I love the way NTU staff helped me with my visa process as an international student. School of Business provides high quality teaching for their students with guiding how to do referencing properly, do presentations and prepare assignments accordingly. Taking NBS students to Thornbridge is a marvelous experience There are so many places to sit and study or chill and chat 24x7 open Boots library in City Campus is a blessing if you want to work over night without any interruptions.
Thank you so much for spending the time to write us a review. It is great to hear you have settled in at the Nottingham Business School. Our wonderful International Student Support team are always on hand to help with any visa related queries and advise you on living in Nottingham as an international student.
Great university all staff are really helpful.

It’s been a perfect stay, and I have had great experiences, especially with the Chinese new years event organised by Minki!

Great accommodation location right in the hub of the uni, and the biggest array of different clubs and societies on offer for everyone! To improve, the student union could better advertise for some events as I don’t always know what’s going on
So many societies to join and everyone is welcoming
Would recommend new comers for new comers
Amazing location. The place is really nice. I like seeing people from different countries

It’s ok and getting improved day by day
NTU is a great place to study because of the diversity that it offers. From Societies to Social events, it has everything.
My course is International Commercial Law LLM. I found that my lecturers are academics in the field and encourage us to develop an academic career. Classes are conducted in the lecture room and divided into two groups. Due to this, lecturers had much time to interact with students and individually focus on them. All materials are available online, and we are supposed to read them and have a preliminary understanding before the lecture. Even the NTU online library has access to many recommended textbooks and journal articles. Lecturers are really friendly, and they have shared their email addresses to ask and clarify any questions about the subject. They never hesitate to reexplain an area of law when a student claims that he or she does not understand it. I am from Sri Lanka, and before I chose a university to study at, I wanted to find out some entry requirements and other details depending on my career. Therefore, I emailed many universities, but NTU and a few other universities bot

Thank you for your review of the university! We love our campuses too and are glad to hear you are enjoying everything they have to offer.
I have loved my time here and there I so many great opportunities to be apart of
The campus is a lovely place and always has decent facilities available for use. The student union and societies are endless and regularly open to new comers

The campus is a lovely place and always has decent facilities available for use. The student union and societies are endless and regularly open to new comers.
Good campus, facilities and bus that runs to the city every 10 mins. The good split between coursework, exams and online tests. However some lecturers are difficult to understand
We agree that the public transport in Nottingham is great for getting from campus to campus and around the city. The introduction of the MazeMap is great for our new students to help them find buildings, teaching rooms and lecture theatres whilst the settle in. We are glad to hear you are happy with the work balance of your course. If you have feedback regarding any of your course content don't forget to speak to your academic school so they can support you further.
NTU is amazing university, their support team is always helpful and quick to get a hold of and employability is a high priority which is so reassuring! There is employability events often and the employability team can help you plan future careers, find jobs, find volunteering opportunities, placements and so much more. The main campus is in the heart of the city so you're not far from anything you need, there is always something happening whether it's a NTU event, a student union event, or a event in Notts, you will never be bored! There is a load of societies, I would be surprised if someone couldn't find something to join and it's really cheap to join as well. The library is huge and great to study in as there is a lot of resources, or if you want to go somewhere quiet there is quite a few extended study lounges about! There are some areas where the Wi-Fi slows down a bit but overall, the internet is great and devices auto connect each time. I really recommend studying here!
Thank you for this great review of NTU! Our Employability are there every step of the way from the start of your course and up to three years after graduation to help support you in your future careers. You can always check their main pages for information about how to get involved in events, workshops and more. Our libraries are designed to give you a safe space to work on your studies. You'll find useful IT and printing facilities, and academic support from our expert team of Library staff. Thank you again for sharing your experiences with our prospective students!

very good experience as i have thoroughly enjoyed my time
nottingham trent has been a great experience
The best part is the support. Every situation I’ve had where I know that I am struggling I know exactly who to talk to about it. NTU makes this very clear from early on. Whether this be to do with assignments, stress, mental health, or just someone to talk to NTU has a variety of teachers and facilities to help! And this has been consistent throughout the 3years of my time at NTU. I LOVE my course. During the beginning of 1st year I was nervous on studying psychology and wanted to change from early on as I didn’t think it was the right course for me. But I am so happy I didn’t change, coming from a place of no prior university knowledge of university, psychology was different but now I’m my third year I am fascinated by it. All the different modules, all the labs, and lectures everything is so interesting! The accommodation has a Great social life and very close to university campus. The staff were always warm and welcoming and very social able and informative.
It’s great to hear your review of Nottingham Trent University, thank you so much for spending the time to write us one.
