As we welcome both freshers and returning students to the city, we\u2019ve put together a new offer to help them get the most out of their time in Nottingham this academic year.<\/p>\n \u201cWith the new discounts, students will be able to access all the city has to offer for less than \u00a31 a day, regardless of how many tram journeys they take that day. So, whether they\u2019re travelling to the iconic Rock City for a gig, into the city centre to shop or enjoying the many food options on offer, they\u2019ll be able to make their money go even further this year.<\/p>\n \u201cWhile university and college students can take advantage of these savings via the NETGO! app, any school students wanting to gain a code for our discounted Under 19 Academic pass just needs to speak with their school, who will then be able to register their interest.\u201d<\/p>\n And for students wanting to get even more discounts they are being urged to visit the NET stand at the University of Nottingham (25th<\/sup> and 26th<\/sup> September), Nottingham Trent University (Clifton campus \u2013 16th<\/sup> September, City campus \u2013 18th<\/sup> and 19th<\/sup> September) and Nottingham College (week commencing 9th<\/sup> September) fresher\u2019s fairs.<\/p>\n Alison added: \u201cFreshers season is always one of our favourite times of the year as it allows us to get out there and meet students to tell them about all the benefits of travelling by tram. This year, we\u2019ve pulled out all the stops for our freshers\u2019 fair stand with lots of prizes to be won and the chance for students to bag themselves some huge savings on their travel. We look forward to seeing both new and returning students for what is set to be another fantastic Freshers\u2019 Week.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Its that time of the year where students start to get ready to return to school\/college\/university and to help the cost of travelling to their various educational establishments, Nottingham Express Transit are offering discounted academic year travel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[20],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55067"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=55067"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55067\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":55068,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55067\/revisions\/55068"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=55067"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=55067"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.britishtramsonline.co.uk\/news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=55067"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
