Your timetable
Accessing your timetable
Your timetable will show you where you need to be and when. This includes the dates, times and locations of your lectures, seminars, workshops and Welcome Week sessions.
You'll be able to view your timetable in e:Vision or myLTU, but only once you've completed your online enrolment. If you're not sure how to do that, head over to our Before You Start page for guidance.
Timetabled sessions
All the sessions listed on your Welcome Week timetable are compulsory, so you should attend every one.
Students who miss this week often tell us they felt like they were always playing catch-up.
It's your chance to meet your coursemates, get to know your tutors and feel more confident about the term ahead.
All sessions take place in person, so keep an eye on your timetable in e:Vision or myLTU for the latest updates.
Non-timetabled sessions
Alongside your timetable, there'll be plenty of optional events happening across campus.
These are a brilliant way to meet new people, explore what's on offer and ease into student life.
From socials and sports tasters to wellbeing drop-ins and welcome events, there'll be something for everyone - with activities run by the University, Leeds Trinity Students' Union, Trinity Sport, Trinity Fitness and the Chaplaincy.
You can find out more by visiting the Events tile on myLTU.
