What ncn can offer
New College Nottingham (ncn) is one of the largest Colleges in the UK with over 25,000 students enrolled on an extensive range of exciting Further and Higher Education study programmes. The size and diversity of the College ensure an interesting mix as students from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures and age ranges study here, all adding to the student experience.
The College’s central location also ensures a vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere, as it is easily accessible from almost anywhere in the UK and overseas.
ncn is an integral part of the local economy and it has a number of campuses located throughout the City. As a Higher Education student most of your studies will be based at one of three main campuses – ncn City, ncn Clarendon and ncn Basford Hall. Each campus offers a different environment, but all offer the familiar ncn welcome and friendly atmosphere.
All the campuses are linked by a free Hopper mini-bus service and most are on a tram route, so you will find it easy to travel between sites and the City centre.
