Open days

There’s no better way to get a feel for your future home than an open day. You can join subject-level information sessions alongside talks about the student experience. You can explore our campus, facilities, and student accommodation. And you’ll get to meet current students, academics, and admissions staff for a chat and to ask them your questions.

It’s an invaluable opportunity to explore, discover, and enjoy some of the vibes that attract so many students to Manchester.
