Visiting Days!

Hi Guys,

I know that around this time Aberystwyth has visiting days for most departments.

I am due to visit Aberystwyth on the 18th of February for my course visiting day (Internet Computing H620)

I was wondering if anyone else is planning or has already gone to their visit day and would like to post on their experiences and what did you think of the university?


Cheers all :cool:

Bit of a pain though coz ive gotta come all the way from the south east coast of England :nothing:

Should be good though, can you give us an idea of what its like after youve been, coz its the same department, also did you do the scholarship exams, and if so what did you think of the exam. :cheers:

Cheers

I went to the general open day last year in the summer. I thought it was very good, my favourite one out of all the unis I had visited. I too am going to do Computer Sciences.

Aberystwyth has a nice town. Not much there in the way of shops but all in all its everything a student could want.

Hope the weather stays dry for you. :wink:

Apparently Aber is a quite a bit dryer than other places in Wales due to its position on the coast!

Do you really need to go to a visit day?
Ive been too the open day last October, and from what it looks like to me its basically very similar.

I've already a room booked at the Savannah Guest House on Queen's Road. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Does anyone know if they send anything in advance of a visiting day? Perhaps a schedule? I've sent off a booking thing.
