Should I still go to an open day if I do not know what course I want to do?

Yes!
Open days can help you to decide what course you want to study.

Here are somethings you can do at an open day to help you make your decision:
- Talk to lecturers to find out more about the courses that you are interested in.
- Attend course talks and interactive sessions so that you can experience what it would be like to study a course.
- Explore the facilities at the university, including subject specific facilities. You can also look around accomodation and the study spaces to get a feel for what it would be like to study at the university.
- Speak to students to find out more about what it is like to actually study the course.

Some questions that you could ask are:
- How will I be assessed on the course?
- What facilities will I use regularly?
- What support is available?
- What are graduates from the course doing now?

Whether you have already decided on your course, are deciding between a couple of options or if you have no idea of what to study, attending an open day is really useful.
