Your question is mentioning the septa which literally means partitions, only one of which exists at the external (corresponding to the olfactory) region of the nose. The external nose, i.e. the easily palpable (touchable) part therefore has "a nasal septum" (not septa). Nostril is only referring to each hole that the cartilaginous septum separates, otherwise known as the nares. Therefore, the nasal septum is not the same as the nostrils; it instead separates them into the right and the left nostrils.
