A few comments following a recent open day:
"Top marks to our tour guide, who was buzzing with enthusiasm. When I left the Open Day I felt extremely positive and motivated."
"I felt the most useful part of the day was having lunch with the tutors – that was where we learnt the nitty-gritty about the course, how it’s run, the placements and career advice. We also got the chance to talk to other prospective students. I found it informative and welcoming. All of my questions were answered in a very friendly way. I found all the staff I talked with to be very approachable and informative."
"It definitely added to the information in the prospectus excellently."
"Thanks, I enjoyed the day and would recommend it to anybody."
