Wrexham University Term Dates 2026/2027
Here are the confirmed Wrexham University Term Dates for the 2026/2027 academic year.
Semester One Dates 2026/27
- Monday 21 September 2026 to Friday 22 January 2027
The academic year kicks off in late September. You’ll have a solid run of teaching before the winter break, followed by a short assessment period in January. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, so pace yourself.
Semester Two Dates 2026/27
- Monday 25 January 2027 to Friday 15 May 2027
Starting just days after Semester One ends, Semester Two carries you through the spring. You’ll get a breather in late March, but the bulk of this semester is a straight run to the finish line in mid-May.
Summer Period Dates 2027
- Monday 17 May 2027 to Friday 6 August 2027
Once Semester Two wraps up, the Summer Period begins. This isn’t just a long holiday; it’s a crucial time for dissertation work, resits, and planning your next steps. The campus remains active, but the formal teaching structure shifts.

Semester Three Dates (Certain Programmes)
- Monday 7 June 2027 to Friday 27 August 2027
This is where things get specific. Semester Three is not for everyone. It is exclusively for certain programmes, typically postgraduate courses or those with accelerated pathways. If you are on one of these courses, your summer looks very different. You’ll be diving deep into your studies from June to late August. Don’t worry if this doesn’t apply to you—it’s a niche but vital part of the university’s offering.

Undergraduate & Postgraduate Term Dates
It is crucial to note that while the broad term dates are the same, the experience differs. Undergraduate term dates generally follow the standard semester structure. Postgraduate term dates, however, can be more intensive, particularly for taught master’s programmes that might utilise the Summer Period for dissertations. Always check your specific programme page for the most accurate timetable.
