It's also a great opportunity to meet your potential future classmates, as everyone attending an Offer Holder Day will be holding an offer for their chosen course.

Accept your offer on UCAS

If you are planning to move away from home, you will need to start looking for suitable accommodation. The university partner accommodation, run by Campus Living Villages, will open for bookings in the spring time. We will email you in advance to let you know when it will open.
If you initially indicated on your UCAS application that you wanted to live at home and have changed your mind, then this isn't a problem at all.

Applications for student finance for courses starting September 2025 to 2026 will open soon. You can find further information on the Gov.uk student finance web pages. Make sure you submit your application in plenty of time, so your funding is in place when you start your course.
Are there other ways to visit if I can no longer attend?
If you can no longer join us at this event, please drop us an email and let us know. We are running multiple Offer Holder Days so you may be able to make it to a future event.
We are also running campus tours throughout the spring and summer, or you can take a virtual tour! To join us for future events, book your place through the Offer Holder Hub.
