Why attending an Open day Could Change Your Mind
It’s easy to think you know what a university is like from descriptions online or flicking through prospectuses. But the truth is, nothing compares to visiting a university campus and seeing it for yourself. Open days can completely change your perspective.
First impressions can be surprising. You might have had your mind set on one university but upon visiting, the “vibe” isn’t quite what you expected. Or the facilities aren’t catered towards your individual needs. Hearing lecturers explain their teaching style or the assessments you should expect or what opportunities are offered within your desired course could paint a clearer image of how your academic journey may look. You’ll be able to meet student ambassadors, who study the course you are looking to enrol into and gain first hand answers to questions you couldn’t find online. If you are looking to move into student accommodation, you could also get a sneak peek into the student living spaces.
There are open days offered at Kingston university various times across the year. To have a look and sign up to attend our upcoming open day Undergraduate Open Days 2025 | Kingston University London for undergraduate students and Postgraduate Open Days 2025 | Kingston University London for postgraduate students.
Choosing a university is a huge and daunting decision and it’s okay if your opinion changes along the way. That is why open days are so valuable - they give you clarity that you can’t always get online
Whats the first thing you check out when you visit a University campus?
