When should I start going to university Open Days?

The best time to start going to University Open Days is typically around spring or summer of Year 12 (March to July). This allows you to explore your options before the busy application season begins. Many students also attend Open Days in the autumn of Year 13 (September to November) for a final look at their top choices before submitting applications. Starting in spring or summer helps you plan well and gives you time to reflect on what you want from your university experience.
