What to expect when you attend an Offer Holder Day at the School of Earth Sciences

You might have been to one of our University Open Days where you explored the University precinct and saw some subject talks and displays which helped you decide which course to apply for at Bristol.  Post-offer visit days are a follow-up to the general open day and are designed to give you more time to ask any questions you may have about your course, look around the facilities again and find out more about what it is like to study here.  We recommend that you attend an Offer Holder Day if possible even if you came to a University Open Day.

The day should give you a really strong sense of what it will be like to be part of our science community at the University of Bristol. On the day you will:

• find out more about your course

• take a tour of the buildings and facilities where you will study

• meet staff and current students and have plenty of opportunities to ask lots of questions

• have a one-to-one informal talk with a member of the teaching staff

The morning programme is organised centrally by the University and includes information about accommodation, student finance and other support services.  Campus tours are also available.  Parents or carers are welcome to join in with the morning activities.  The afternoon programme is specifically for applicants and is about the School of Earth Sciences and the course you have applied for.
