First, you’ll be bombarded with information over the day, so make sure you collect any information packs for future reference. Some may be about the university in general, while others may be specific to a particular department or course. With all the information being thrown at you, use a notepad or your phone to take some simple notes about anything that seems significant, such as in the form of bullet points. Combined with the information packs, this will help you choose a university and course of study later when comparing the various options.
Secondly, talk with any lecturers who may be teaching you in future. Factors such as class sizes, the ratio of online to in-person teaching, extracurricular opportunities and assessment methods may be critical things to consider when you make your ultimate decision. Finally, take the time to explore the city or town, as this may be your home for the next few years.
