No Problem if you go on the main university website and look under welcome week, on the left hand side it mentions courses, click on that and type in what your studying. make sure it says undergraduate and then it should come up with your induction programme, may not be up for another week or two but worth a check and you will get this emailed to you within the next three weeks maximum.


Found it thankyou :smile: also, it may seem a silly question but can other people come to freshers who arent at the uni? i was thinking so i could go out on nights out taking 1/2 friends so i can still meet more people from uni but will have people to travel on the train/ whatever home with?

Freshers events are usually open just for them, especially if its being held in a venue thats closed off to other public for the night. If its a normal bar then maybe it would be possible but i'm not entirely certain, its worth checking out with people in the know at the union.

now.ntu.ac.uk click on the login logo on the left hand side, links you to a page to input password and student number, click that. takes you to homepage, after that there should be a bar at the top saying email click that and it will bring up your email.

then all you have to do is register on the union website, if you want any updates from them or to buy tickets for events

I know moving in weekend is 23rd-25th, but my parents can't take up until the 24th on the saturday of the moving in weekend due to work etc... I was thinking, I might just take a duffel bag with some stuff in just to get me through the first night, and because if I go up on the friday, I'll have done all the waiting about and everything, so therefore my parents can just come on the saturday any time and just bring my stuff straight to my room....

It saves time, makes it easier for me (I find my family super annoying to wait with and travel with). But will it be doable, and an okay thing to do? Like I won't look crazy turning up on the Friday with just one bag? lol!

You won't look crazy at all, international students have to do it. just bring a medium sized bag that can fit enough things in for that one night and a sleeping bag until you get bedding and everything, and just eat out that first day. Sounds a bit like most families to be honest, especially when waiting fro them or travelling anywhere.

Thanks! I was just think of all these people turning up with parents in tow and loads of bags! Mind you, means I can relax a bit easier on the first day this way and just chill a bit more than others until my parents arrive lol!

Peverell address is:
Room [Block, Flat, Number]
Peverell Halls,
Clifton Campus
Clifton
Nottingham
NG11 8NS

You'll have a key to your own post box in the Peverell offices when you pick up your keys on your first day- though bar in mind it's a flat post box, and parcels will be picked up by the Peverell offices- and there will be a list of parcels up in the office.
