Nottingham Trent has various entry requirements for different subjects, with English language proficiency needing to be proved by an IELTS result. The requirements vary for each school, but for undergraduate bachelor's degrees the requirements are generally between 6.0 to 7.0 with at least 5.5 in every component of the test. In some cases, the requirements for first year admission may be lower than the levels needed to join a course in the second year of study. Equivalent IELTS scores shown by other language tests such as KITE, TOEFL and Pearson may also be acceptable to prove English language proficiency.

NTU also offer pre-sessional English courses over a six to 20-week period to help potential students achieve the level they need for their course. PEAP courses are specifically designed to help future students meet the language conditions of their offers and provide an opportunity to settle into university life.

Students should be sure to check country-specific entry requirements, as these vary depending on the country where study has previously been undertaken and qualifications have been gained.

NTU offers a range of competitive scholarships for international and EU students who hold offers to study at NTU. As a result, students will find it possible to discount or fully cover the costs of their studies depending on their eligibility for the various awards available.

These prestigious, competitive awards range in value from GBP 2,000 to half fee.

They also offer scholarships to encourage students from specific countries worth up to GBP 5,000 per year.

Talented athletes and musicians may also be able to access scholarships individually tailored to them.

Other Global Study Awards to support study in the UK could also be utilised by students looking to attend NTU and international students should explore all avenues of potential funding.
