How to apply

What do I need to apply?

Firstly, you’ll need all your results available including GCSEs or equivalent so we can match with our course entry requirements. You’ll need to provide us with your full contact details including address, telephone and email.

Have your UCAS and Clearing number ready. You can still apply without your Clearing number but you will need this issued by UCAS to accept your offer on UCAS Track.

How to apply

To apply to NTU you can call our Clearing hotline or apply online.

Calling us

When you call you’ll speak to a Clearing adviser who’ll work with you to try and find a suitable course for you. They’ll ask a series of questions to find out more about your results and any relevant experience. Remember: It's important that you call us yourself. We can’t discuss your application with a parent / carer or teacher as this will breach the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

If you are eligible to apply and we have vacancies your application will be completed on the call and the adviser will confirm if your application has been successful. An email will follow confirming the offer and instructions on how to respond via UCAS Track.

For some courses you may be asked to attend an interview, provide a portfolio or talk to a tutor, as part of the application. Don’t worry, the operator will explain the process and will refer you to the next step. You will need to complete this stage to progress your application.

What’s happens when you get an offer from NTU?

We will send you confirmation of the offer by email. You need to check to make sure all the details and results are correct. If you need to make any changes please call our Clearing hotline.

You’ll need go into UCAS Track and select ‘add Clearing choice’. Add the course and NTU’s UCAS institution code name NOTRE and institution code N91. This counts as you definitely accepting the offer, and will show as an acceptance on your 'Choices' page in UCAS Track. The earliest you can accept is from 2 pm on A-level results day.

Following this, our Admissions team will send you joining instructions by email and at this point, you can talk to our Accommodation or Student Finance teams.

How many offers can I have?

You may receive multiple courses offers through the Clearing and Adjustment process, and it's important that you make the choice that's right for you. You can only accept one so research the course and university in detail before you respond.

What if I need accommodation?

When you accept the NTU offer you can give our friendly Accommodation team a call and they will be there to help you find your new home – whether it's in University-owned halls of residence, halls of residence run by our partner providers or private companies, or accredited shared housing. You will need your NTU student number [N Number] to book accommodation.
