This page contains key information for our current students. If you are a new student joining us in September, please read your programme school induction section before your arrival.

 

School Inductions

The first week of a new academic year is dedicated to a programme of induction and orientation activities and it is a chance for you to complete registration and settle in before teaching begins.

There are optional social activities like Fresher’s Week and compulsory activities like registration and school inductions. All you need to know before starting the new academic year can be found on the Student Welcome page. 

It is important that you complete your registration as soon as you arrive on campus and accept all Canvas invitations sent to your new ncl.ac.uk email address.

We also encourage you to visit our Jobs on Campus Page, and register as a student worker as there are an abundance of excellent work opportunities to get involved witth and help build your experience. You will also be added to the SACS Futures community which is another resource for career development.
