📅 Nottingham Trent University Term Dates 2025/26

Planning your year around Nottingham Trent University’s academic calendar is essential—especially if you’re a University of Nottingham student attending NTU for a course, placement, or postgraduate programme. Below are the official 2025/26 NTU term dates:

• Term 1: Monday 22 September – Friday 12 December 2025

• Term 2: Monday 12 January – Friday 27 March 2026

• Term 3: Monday 13 April – Friday 29 May 2026

Welcome Week kicks off on Monday 22 September 2025, and it’s recommended you arrive before then to settle in.

Timetables go live on 8 September (for new students) and 15 September (for returning students).

🏡 Planning Your Accommodation Around Term Dates

If you’re moving from the University of Nottingham to study at NTU or living in shared accommodation nearby, make sure your tenancy dates line up with the term schedule. We recommend booking housing from mid-September 2025 through early June 2026.

At Student Housing, we offer bills-included student homes close to both NTU and UoN campuses, making it easy to avoid mid-term moves or awkward overlap with exam periods. If you’re expecting to stay in Nottingham for summer resits or postgraduate study, let us know so we can tailor your tenancy.

🎓 Differences Between NTU and UoN Term Dates

While the autumn term start date is similar between Nottingham Trent University and the University of Nottingham, there are some key differences.

NTU typically finishes earlier in the summer term—by the end of May—whereas the University of Nottingham continues teaching into mid-to-late June. That’s something to consider if you’re planning travel, moving dates, or graduation.

If you’re a student involved with both universities, such as through joint programmes or housing, it’s worth double-checking both sets of term dates so nothing clashes.
