This free event is designed to help students prepare for the university application journey and their transition into higher education. It features a series of presentations about the benefits of higher education and student finance, and a range of subject specific workshops.
The online event is designed to focus the thinking of year 12s and equip them in advance with some of the strategies, information and insights needed to personalise their planning and exploration of the vast range of higher education choices and critical decisions they face. It will help them to prepare for upcoming UCAS HE Fairs and University Open Days so that they can get the most they can from those opportunities.
This event will have representatives from major regional universities, expert seminar speakers and student ambassadors.
