Although there are some similarities between open days and applicant days, we encourage you to come to an applicant experience day even if you’ve already attended an open day.
Applicant experience days offer an opportunity to find out in more detail information about your course, modules and the department, as well as meet the lecturers, current students, and other applicants.
Choosing the right university for you is a huge decision. An applicant experience day will give you another chance to see the campus, accommodation and the city - to make sure you’re going to be happy studying and living here.
Whilst applicant visits are shorter versions of our applicant days for those offer holders who have not yet been able to attend an applicant day. They offer a chance for you to meet lecturers, speak to current students, and ask any questions you may have.
Yes. We run weekly campus tours to give you a feel for what life is like at Hull. Find out more and register your place on a campus tour here.
