Applicant Experience Day

Join our Applicant Experience Day to find out more about what makes Brunel brilliant!

The day will run from 10am-3pm and you'll spend it with other applicants. This will be different from an Open Day - it's specifically designed to give you a personalised hands-on experience of what studying at Brunel would be like.

What to expect at our Applicant Experience Day:

  • Chat with the teaching staff from your subject to gain insight into the courses and ask any questions
  • Take part in taster lectures or workshops to get first-hand experience of our academic environment and teaching styles 
  • Take this opportunity to meet your future classmates, so you can start your university journey with familiar faces by your side
  • Explore our campus through our student-led tours and see the teaching, learning, eating and living spaces available to you
  • Chat with our staff who will support you during your studies including on and off-campus accommodation, career and placement advisers, student finance, student support, student wellbeing and our students' union
