Nottingham Trent University: Admission, Acceptance Rate and Deadlines 2026

• There were scholarships available for Indian Students for up to 25% based on academic grades and strength of profile, although I could not avail it because I had missed the deadline. The award amount varies from 3000- 10,000 pounds.
• Two of my friends got a full-ride scholarship, but they were British by citizenship. So, it really depended on the nationality criteria, too

• I did not get any scholarship as the University provides a first-come, first-served policy. Which means the earlier you apply for the Scholarship, the more chances you get.
• In my case, I applied at a later stage and hence did not qualify for the scholarship.
• The Universities in the United Kingdom heavily provide scholarships for students of at least 2-3 Lakhs INR.

• Yes, I received an International Scholar Student Scholarship of £3500

• Most of my friends received a scholarship from the University. Some of my friends didn't receive it all, depending on the answers that were given in the form

• Yes, Nottingham Trent University offers several scholarships for international students, including those applying for postgraduate courses like mine in Broadcast Journalism. These scholarships are merit-based and are awarded on the basis of academic excellence, personal statement strength, and overall potential to contribute to the university community. Like I said, I received the NTU Excellence Scholarship, which is one of the more competitive international scholarships offered by the university.
• The eligibility was primarily based on my previous academic record, the strength of my personal statement, and how well I could demonstrate why I was a good fit for the course and for NTU as an institution. There was no separate exam or interview—it was based on the merit of our essays and our motivation to pursue the course. The scholarship awarded me a 50% tuition fee waiver, which amounted to approximately ?7.5 lakhs being deducted from my total course fee. For an international student, that kind of financial relief made a huge difference. It helped ease the burden on my family and allowed me to focus fully on my studies and creative projects during the course. Yes, two of my batchmates also received scholarships.
• One of them received a 20% tuition fee waiver, and the other got 50%, just like I did. We were all from different countries, which shows that NTU’s scholarship program is quite inclusive and doesn’t favour any one nationality. What matters most is your application strength and what you bring to the course. While I don’t have the exact numbers, from what I gathered during my time there and from speaking with staff, roughly 100–200 international students across various degrees receive scholarships each year. The award amounts typically range from £2,000 partial waivers to 50% of full tuition fees, depending on the specific scholarship and the applicant's profile. Full scholarships are rare but not impossible—most awards fall between the 20% and 50% range.

• Unfortunately, I did not receive any scholarship because I failed to apply by the deadline. If you received Distinction in your first 5 subjects. Also, it depends on how many grades you have received in your undergraduate, which I am not 100 percent sure of, as the details were only shared with students who applied. That Scholarship amount was 3000 GBP. Around 100 people across all departments received scholarships.

• Yes, I received an International Undergraduate Student Scholarship on my tuition fees from Nottingham Trent University
• The criteria is simple, I simply had to express my views, plans and my passion for studying at this university on my specific choice of course by answering some questions through NTU’s main website. All the universities provide such scholarships, so I had applied to all the universities of my choice. 
• I received a £2,000 International Undergraduate Student Scholarship from Nottingham Trent University on my tuition fees only.
• Not all of them had applied for it so, no! Everyone did not receive a scholarship.
• But many Europeans had applied for bursary, which they did receive! (The amount of the bursary varied from student to student)
• I’m unaware of this information but I have heard that the majority of the students that apply for the undergraduate scholarship, do receive it! 

• Yes there are and i was fortunate enough to receive one. My overall tuition was £15000 and i received a scholarship for £3000 so i had to pay only £12000 as my tuition, out of which i had paid £6000 as the first installment during the start of my course and later at the start of the final term, I had to pay the balance of £6000 to the university.
• Getting scholarships is not very difficult if you write a good and focused essay on why do you need the scholarship and how does it make your life easy when choosing to study at NTU

I chose this university as it ranked amongst top 10 in arts in UK. My overall experience is a learning path for me evolving gradually and learning. Career opportunities is hardly any if you do not make contacts. Achieving good marks and passing will not help unless you make industry contacts.

I chose this university as the academic reputation of NTU is great for my course of study, and the city itself is extremely student-friendly. It was extremely easy for me as an international student to indulge in university activities and eventually, I fell in love with the city.
