University/College Open Days

Be well prepared, with a pack containing drinks and snacks and a waterproof, as well as your note pad and pen. Some campuses will require a lot of walking and may be hilly. Be prepared for a very tiring day and you won't be able to get to every talk, as they may overlap or not give time to get between locations. Remember that most talks on Student Finance are similar and tours of student accommodation can become repetitive, as well as leading to confusion about which accommodation was on which campus.

Make sure you locate the Student Union Shop and Resturant for cheaper food and drinks. Do stop for lunch at some stage, as you will be on the go from the start at 9:30 to the end at 16:00 and beyond.

Beware of split campuses, they may be close together or could be 50 miles apart. Don't end up on the wrong site for your subject of interest.

If you are travelling far afield then you may want to stay over. Travelodge have special offer rooms at £19 and £29 if you book on-line. see Useful Links
