Get yourself ready for university life
Explore this site to find useful checklists to help prepare you for student life and studies at NTU.
How to enrol
To officially register as a student with NTU, you will need to enrol at the start of every academic year. You should be on campus for your course start date to join all necessary induction activities. We encourage you to complete your enrolment as soon as possible once you arrive on campus.
Your course induction
No matter which campus you'll be studying at, course inductions are essential activities that take place at the start of the term. They are designed to introduce you to your course and how you'll learn at NTU – from our online teaching tools to the buildings and facilities that you'll use as part of your studies.
Arranging your funding
Before you arrive at NTU it’s important that you make sure your funding is in place and that the university knows how your tuition fees are being paid. Here, we explain how to arrange your student finance, and all the steps you need to take for your student finance payments to be released.
