Piercings?

Hi everyone, I know it’s not relevant, but I really want to get my lip pierced and my tongue pierced, however I’m going to be studying Law and I want to go into criminal Law in the future, if I got flesh coloured jewellery, could I get away with it, or is the field still very conservative?

Ability to make friends

Hi all,
I was allocated a place at UON via clearing and so as a result, my accommodation options were limited and I ended up with a studio. Will I still be able to make friends when I arrive and where is the best place to start ?

desperate for accom :/

so like a silly idiot i got my tenancy cancelled at deakins place for missing the first rent payment in august (technically not entirely my fault as my parents were going to pay the rent until i got my sfe and settled at uni, but my mum forgot).

i was going to be in a silver ensuite room for 8.7k per year and i had planned my finances perfectly around that accom, now i have no accommodation lined up and the room i had is not only sold out but also 1grand more expensive this time.

if anyone knows of anyone doing a tenancy takeover for a silver ensuite room at deakins place for around the same price please let me know im absolutely out of my mind with stress. 🙏🙏

All my friends were from the years above, have now graduated, and moved far away. Starting from September onwards I will be mostly friendless again, which is sort of dull for third year. Anyone in a similar position and want to hang out lol

Going to St Peter’s Court as an NTU student

I’m quite nervous for my first year in September, not because of the big change but because of the fact that I will be staying in St Peters Court although I am an NTU student. I fear that I will not be able to relate to my other flat mates because they will most likely go to UoN. I’ve also heard so much about UoN students looking down on NTU students and I just don’t want to be that person people secretly don’t like.

To anyone who went to Nottingham Trent University but stayed in SPC for their first year, how was your experience?

Or does anyone who went SPC as a UoN student feel a type of way towards the NTU students?

(also I cannot move accommodation unfortunately as I cleared into NTU so there are little spaces in other accommodations!)

Has anyone else received this email?

​

UoN students, should I be worried? 😂

Got this email on my personal email from “ShinyHunters” claiming they hacked UoN’s database and my phone, camera, microphone, photos… basically my whole life 💀

It was marked as spam, but now I’m wondering — with the way I use public Wi-Fi, am I cooked? 😂

Anyone else get this?

So i missed my LSE offer..

Okay so results day came and i missed out on the A in maths i needed for LSE, but i was lucky enough to make it into my insurance being Nottingham Economics.

I believe everything happens for a reason but i realise ive just got to go harder this year.Hence why Im hoping for any advice on how to tackle this application season when it comes to securing spring weeks as the first stop to a graduate offer as someone targeting high finance potentially ib/am/pe/ consulting roles ( ik its broad but im very open minded ).

I would very much appreciate any advice on how to approach and execute applications this year , also any Nottingham students who know of any resources etc u should utilise , even advice from people who have broke in from semi targets like nottingham.

Thanks in advance

Mac or Windows for Aerospace Engineering course?

Hey guys,

My son got his place for Aerospace Engineering today, and is already driving me mad about getting a new laptop for Uni.

He really wants a Mac, but in my experience, Windows is better for education, particularly things like CAD software etc.

If any of you happen to be on this course already, I'd love some feedback on what you'd suggest is the right thing to do.

Cheers,

JK

Rejection from Law

Hey everyone! I didn’t get the grades for M100 Law, but Nottingham offered me Criminology. I’ve asked if I can switch this to Politics & International Relations instead.

I’ve heard you might be able to transfer courses after 1st year, so I was wondering if anyone knows how this works and how likely it is to transfer into Law?

Also, if anyone studies Politics & IR, I’d love to hear what you think of the course, any tips, and what jobs/careers people have gone into afterwards.
I’m a bit worried about the career side because my parents keep telling me I won’t be able to get a job with this degree 😭 so I’d really appreciate hearing from current students/graduates!

Should I be worried about Nottingham's financial situation?

I got an offer to study there today and everything about the uni seems decent besides one blaring issue, the financial problems they've been having.

Will this risk their reputation with employers (they're currently seen as a semi-target for financial institutions, can that change)?

Will the quality of life at the university worsen?

I would really appreciate if current or prospective students could comment.

Cheers

Private accommodation

I just got my UoN offer through clearing today and the course i applied for is going to be on University park campus.Ideally id like to book an accommodation with an ensuite, but the university accommodations are all really expensive so I was hoping to find a private accommodation. I was wondering if there are any private accoms near campus that 1st years can still book or am I out of luck? IQ looks good but its a 10-20 minute bus journey. Depending on the location and I'm scared there will be no other 1st years

Nottingham trent or Southampton?

I got into Nottingham trent for ecology and conservation (the course I want To do) and then Southampton for environmental science (which im nota. big fan of.) Ive heard Nottingham has a great night life but obviously Southampton is a Russel group and notting trent isnt. im not sure which one to go to bc a big city nightlife is very important for me I think, and from what ive heard, people say Southampton is not very good. Ahhh idk what to do.
