Support to study policy
Nottingham Trent University is committed to providing a supportive environment for its students and recognises that the wellbeing of students is critical to their learning, academic achievement and wider student experience. This policy will apply in situations where a student's health, wellbeing and / or behaviour are having a detrimental impact on their ability to progress academically and function effectively at the University.
Student Route Academic Engagement Monitoring Policy
NTU is required by UK Visas and Immigration, a department of the UK government’s Home Office, to monitor the academic engagement of Student Route visa holders. Visa holders themselves are required to engage with their course and inform their school if there is any reason why they may not be able to. Failure to engage with the course as laid out in the policy may lead to withdrawal from the course.
The purpose of the Student Route Academic Engagement Policy is to set out how NTU will be monitoring the engagement of international students sponsored under the Student Route visa category and the appeal process for students who may be withdrawn as a result of not meeting the policy’s requirements. This policy was written by Academic Registry, with input provided by academic schools.
You can find the Student Route Academic Engagement policy in Section 2: Enabling Student Development and Achievement, of the Academic Quality Handbook.
Use of Prayer And Faith Facilities Policy
The University provides facilities for prayer and other faith activities across all campuses. This document gives information about the location of these facilities and the policy for their use.
