Full event details

Academics will be available to chat to one-on-one so that you can learn more about the courses you're interested in, and you'll be able to learn more at a subject talk with an academic teaching on the course. For a real taste of the student experience, pop into a taster lecture too!

It's a good idea to join a Campus Tour which are run by students who can show you their favourite spots. We also have accommodation for you to take a look around, and speak with students living there this year.

Soak up the atmosphere of student life on campus and talk to current students to hear more about their experiences.

Bring along your friends and family and get to know Essex. We can't wait to meet you!
