This Open Day is intended for anyone interested in our undergraduate courses, including students of all ages (Although we have no age restrictions we recommend that students attending are in Year 10 and upwards, due to the focus on the day).
The RVC’s Open Day at the Hawkshead Campus, Hertfordshire, typically in May/June, is an all-encompassing, immersive and informative event for prospective students, parents/guardians and advisors.
This annual event is one of the largest and most popular on-campus visiting opportunity in our calendar. The day will offer in-depth pathway presentations and the opportunity to speak with lead academics and passionate Student Ambassadors from our three undergraduate pathways: Biological Sciences, Veterinary Medicine & Veterinary Nursing. To ensure that all areas of our University are represented on the day; professionals from Accommodation, Admissions, Learning & Wellbeing and the Students’ Union will be on-hand to share their insight through informal conversations.
There are a multitude of activities simultaneously running throughout the day, such as campus tours, behind the scenes access to hospital facilities, the chance to undertake hands-on clinical skills, rare access to Boltons Park Farm and student accommodation viewings. This access-all-areas Open Day offers the opportunity for you to envision what being an RVC student is like to help you decide whether our institution is your best fit.
