Open Day

Are you thinking of applying to this university?

Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.

Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.

The timetabling and course structure was very good as time for independent study was provided. The build up to assessment period was well organised giving time for feedback on knowledge. Lecture delivery was good and recordings were done to be watched in independent study.
