Updates to the 2022 student academic experience
This page reflects the changes to our Covid-19 advice and guidance for students and when these changes occurred.
Term start date
The 2022-23 academic year starts on Monday 19 September 2022. All students must aim to arrive on campus in Newcastle by 19 September for the start of Semester 1.
You can start the registration process online before you arrive. Information about how to register is available on our Student Welcome pages.
Unable to travel to Newcastle by 19 September?
We are really looking forward to welcoming you to Newcastle University.
We are committed to supporting new students travelling to Newcastle from outside of the UK who are unable to join us by 19 September due to requirements to isolate, flight availability or delays in receiving their visa.
Most of our courses can accept late arrival if you are delayed by up to four weeks in Semester 1. For some of our courses, flexible arrival may not be possible.
You will need to complete a form telling us your intended arrival date or requesting a flexible start where this is available. We will be in touch soon with details of how you can do that, as well as the relevant support we will put in place until you can join us in Newcastle.
