When is the first day of college?

Mark your calendar and sharpen your pencils—College of West Anglia welcomes you to the start of the academic adventure from Monday, 1st September 2025! All full-time courses will begin during the week commencing that date. Don’t forget: check your induction and timetable details closer to the time, as they may be updated over the summer. We’ll also send you a text and email as soon as your first-day details go live—so keep your eyes on your inbox, not just your phone screen!

Returning for round two? Welcome back to the sequel—this time, you know where the coffee is!

If you’re a second-year student, your first day back is Monday, 8th September 2025. That’s when daytime teaching for full-time Year 2+ students officially commences. So, get ready to hit the books (and maybe the canteen) from that date!
