Widening Participation and Outreach programmes and events

Nottingham Sutton Trust Summer Schools - applications open 14th January!

Our Nottingham Summer Schools are open to Year 12 students at UK state-maintained schools and colleges.

Participants will enjoy a free 5-day residential Nottingham experience in July and will also receive support with the UCAS application process and HE transition through year 13. Students who complete our Summer School are eligible for an enhanced contextual offer (up to two grades lower) for most Nottingham courses.

If a student enrols as a full-time undergraduate (Home UK) at Nottingham after attending this programme, they automatically qualify for a bursary worth £1,000 for each year of undergraduate study.

Apply online by midday 6th March. Please direct questions to summer-school@nottingham.ac.uk
