Holidays

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows when the holidays are and how long do they last? I'm interested because I might be flying back home then and need to plan accordingly. I'm a bit confused with the semesters/terms too. Any help is appreciated.

Ignore the semester dates - they're only used to split the 3 term year into 2 parts. Term dates are what you're after. Holidays (I think technically referred to as the vacation period) are whenever it's not term time.

Ok, cause that was confusing me. So, basically, we have free time from the 10th of DEC to the 10th of JAN, then from the 1st of April to the 3rd of May, and finally from the 17th of June to the 20th of September? Are you a student there already?

You'll be better off looking at http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/about/datesandcampusinformation/keydates/dates1112.aspx

what with that being the dates for the academic year starting this september. If this is confusing, the first vacation period is the 17 dec to 15 jan

Well, that's cool and all, but the thing is that I've already consulted the website of the Uni before making this topic. What I need are exact dates, or at least the duration, of vacations. I can't find that on the website, which is why I'm asking here.

The website says the exact dates of the terms, the vacations are when there is no term happening.

So 17 dec to 15 jan, 31 march to 29 april, 10 june to 23 sep

Thanks, that was what I asked earlier for a confirmation. :smile:
