Bring Your Family to University Days are free one-day events on UCL's central London campus for students from Year 5 to Year 11, and their families.
Bring Your Family to University Days are a series of free one-day events aimed at providing information, advice and guidance about university to young people and their parents and carers through fun and interactive sessions on UCL's central London campus.
These events will include activities such as subject taster lectures, panels, support sessions for parents/carers, campus tours and the opportunity to talk to current university students. A FREE packed lunch will be provided.
When and where will the events take place?
We’re offering primary and secondary school students the opportunity to visit the UCL campus with their families for a day in June or July 2023. All events will take place at UCL's main campus (Gower St, London WC1E 6AE) between 10:00am and 3:00pm (registration will open from 9:30am). More information will be provided to those who are shortlisted to attend the event.
