Nottingham Trent University

Nottingham trents freshers week is amazing! If you live in halls, there are reps to show you the facilities and where to go over the events of that week. I am beyond excited to experience it again next year!

Lots and lots of clubs to choose from. Lots of hidden bars to find each with a unique vibe. Always busy but need to know what places are best for certain nights.

Moving into Byron NTU accommodation with the help of the many volunteers there made the experience less stressful. The use of older student freshers reps allowed a smooth transition into uni life, the organisation of the reps helped with the meeting of new people as well a week of amazing events.

Very enjoyable, you bond well with your flat mates. It's very easy to meet new people, all you have to do is go to events. Everyone is in the same boat as you, they all want to make new friends.

Overall the week was an amazingly experience. The freshers reps helped out lots and looked after us well. The events that were in place not just in the night but throughout the day were really entertaining and made me feel incredibly excited for the city I'll be living in and the university. Moving in and meeting new people wasn't as scary experience as I thought it would have been and I've met the best people whilst being here. Meeting the lecturers and course leaders was especially lovely. I think what helped me the most was moving in fairly earlier than everyone else else to get to know the city before freshers. As I went fore private halls, I had the option of moving in a lot earlier.

Freshers week will hands down be the best week of your university life. It may seem daunting at first as you probably don't know anyone and are new to it all but once the drinks are flowing and the games get going, you will honestly make friends for life. Freshers is a non stop party and a really good way to start off first year! + remember, you only need 40% to pass so why not make it freshers year!

Moving in we were helped by a number of freshers team reps to ensure that we could unload all of our belongings into our new accommodation. I found this very welcoming and it enable me to get settled in right away! The night events were planned well and the freshers reps got us all to go out each night which helped with meeting new people. Overall, the experience was fun.

Love this university. It is the best university in the best student town of all. Nottingham has the best parties the UK has ever seen

Freshers week at Nottingham Trent University was incredible! There was a large range of varied activities for everyone to get involved with, and the the Freshers Reps were a great help. They moved all my stuff in for me and looked after me on nights out during the week - and it's a voluntary role!

Freshers was very useful in meeting new people and firming your friendships, it allowed me to stay free and more sociable especially knowing everyone was in the same boat as me. We had a set calendar of events every night with allocated themes which was really useful because we could plan our nights out. For future freshers I would say not to worry about the first week everyone is at their more social peak and very friendly; enjoy your time and make the most out of it.!

It was a great week, with the university holding lit events at their Student Union. Cheap drinks and good music for sure

Every night was amazing, we had buses sent to our accommodation every night to take us direct to the clubs for a only £1and it also picked us up after the night out. It was safe and made me enjoy my night much more as I didn’t have to worry about travel. Drinks were quite cheap and everyone in Notts knows how to have a good night !

The most craziest and fun week of my life, non stop partying and getting to know new people. Everyone is getting to know eachother and it’s great, you get to explore all of the new city you have moved to, and enjoy many nights out. So many memories were made that I’ll remember for the rest of my life.

Such an awesome week. The fresher reps were really good fun and super helpful if we had any issues. A good mix of things of crazy nights out but also daytime activities to cater for everyone's interests

The freshers team members carried all of my bags in to my flat (unfortunately for them the furthest away) and made sure I felt settled. The RA came round and welcomed each Flat personally. Nights out we’re amazing, and again the fresher team members were there to guide us and make sure we were safe and sound.

When I arrived at my halls there was a team of fresher reps there ready to unload my car for me. We thought this was brilliant as a job that would of probably taken an hour was over within 10 minutes. Fresher reps later arrived at our halls to insist we get ready for the first nights plans. This happened every night. Each night was a different theme and encouraged us to get dressed up together, it was great. Pre drinks were held with other flats so we got to meet so many people and the drinking games were really good ice breakers, I’m still friends with some of the people I met in freshers week. The whole week was really well organised and so much fun, one of the best weeks of my life.

When I first arrived at my halls, there was an entire crew of fresher reps who helped to unload my mums car. A job that probably would of taken an hour took ten minutes, all my things where brought straight to my room by the team. Most of my flat mates were already there so I went to introduce myself. Later fresher reps turned up to insist we all get ready because we are going out. It was really well organised. The same thing happened every night for the full 10 days and there was a different theme every night, it was so much fun. The reps forcing us to play drinking games made making friends so easy and I can honestly say it was one of the best weeks of my life, like a week long holiday.

I thoroughly enjoyed my freshers week, in particularly the fresher's fairs put on by the uni. There were lots of stalls and friendly staff guiding us through the day.

Great experience. Very well organised. Great fun, great value for money. amazing freshers reps, made moving in easy and made the nights entertaining

The freshers week was one of the best experiences of my life. I met a lot of fantastic individuals from all over the world. Everybody was very friendly and got along very well. The events lasted for entire week and were fantastic. My favourite was the Trent Army event. If your worried about coming to university, don’t be! It’s an amazing experience

The freshers week was an amazing experience. I met a lot of different people from all over the world. Freshers week was one of the best experiences you’ll ever have during your university life. People are extremely friendly, the events were amazing and it wasn’t very expensive to take part. Nottingham offers a lot of events including fairs where you can get lots of type of promotions and vouchers across many outlets in the city. You also get an opportunity to join different types of societies and sports clubs. There is many different things you can choose from, there’s something for everybody. Even though I was a bit concerned about freshers week at the end it turned out to be an amazing event.

Fun! Met loads of people and was something enjoyed by all. A wide range of activities, not all involving alcohol as well!

The move in was aided amazingly by current students who were extremely helpful and really inclusive of all the new alumni. They also made it really easy to get to know everyone by ensuring that there were games and events going on between every halls every day.

Everything was great, everyone was welcoming and helpful. The nightlife was fun and energetic. The first week of my course was entertaining and the ropes were shown well enough! The city of Nottingham at first was daunting but with advice from second/third years everyone becam led friendly and more and more helpful! My moving day was nerve racking but with the help of fresher reps it was made all the easier!
