Why go to an Open Day? Here's why...

If you don’t go, you won’t know. Whether you’re just starting to look at universities or you’ve already applied, an Open Day is your chance to find out if the university is right for you.

You can meet the lecturers and chat to students who've been in your shoes. Tour the accommodation and size up the beds and the storage space. Head out into the city and discover what life is like outside the lecture theatres. And one more thing...

You'll get that all-important gut feeling that tells you what no one else can. Trust us. As soon as you get here, you'll feel it. And you'll know for certain if this is where you're meant to be.

What to expect at a Hull Open Day

From the moment you arrive, you can be sure of a famously friendly Northern welcome. You'll get a rare glimpse of our Gold-standard, research-led teaching. And we’ll let you in on how you could play your part in helping us tackle the big issues challenging humanity. What else?

Experience our proudly progressive history and up-to-the-minute facilities – all within a 10-minute walk across a safe and leafy campus. Get answers to all your UCAS application, student finance and support questions. Plus, take the city tour of our buzzing student quarter and Hull's hidden gems.

What do our students say about our Open Days? Hear from two of our graduates about how they knew Hull was right for them:

I went to look at three or four unis, and as soon as I saw Hull I knew that was where I wanted to go. It’s hard to put into words but it just felt right.

Mark Chapman

BBC Sports presenter

They say that when you know, you know, and I really did. Hull became the benchmark by which I compared absolutely every other campus. It remained the only one I could ever really imagine myself on.
