Who should I contact about schools and colleges liaison at the University of Nottingham?
How much do these activities cost?
All activities offered by the Widening Participation and Student Recruitment Outreach team are free. There may be some costs attached to activities that we advertise on behalf of our faculty contacts.
Our Primary and Pre 16 Outreach teams work with local schools within the East Midlands. Our Post 16 Outreach team works nationally. We try to work with as many schools and colleges as we can. However, as a small team, we are unable to accept all the requests we receive.
How can my students make their application stand out?
The applications that your students make to the University are carefully reviewed by our admissions team; the personal statement is one of the main ways that students can stand out from other applicants.
If you would like us to visit you to deliver a personal statement session for your students, then please contact us.
Do you run conferences for careers advisers and teachers?
Yes we do – we run one on campus here in Nottingham which covers a wide range of subject areas, designed to provide you with more information about the University of Nottingham.
