University of Salford - Offer Holder Days 2024

Congratulations on receiving an offer to study with us. We would love to invite you to our upcoming Offer Holder Days on our campus.

These days provide offer-holders a real flavour of what life is like as a Salford undergraduate student. With multiple dates and sessions, to choose from you can tailor your schedule to suit your interests. You'll have the opportunity to learn more about your course, chat with your future classmates and speak with our staff and students about studying at Salford.

We could tell you all the reasons why we think an Offer Holder Day is a great idea, but we figured it was better for you to hear it from one of our students. Click the video below to hear all about Offer Holder Days from our student ambassador, Aidan.

Why should I come to an Offer Holder Day?

Campus signpost at Open Day

Our Offer Holder Days are the next step on from our Open Days, and are exclusive to applicants who have been made an offer to study with us.

Choosing the university that's right for you is one of the most important decisions you will make for your future. Even if you have already attended an Open Day, we would strongly recommend that you attend one of these events as they provide valuable insight into what it will be like to live (or commute), study and socialise with us.

As an offer holder for one of our courses, you have already narrowed down your choices and we’re thrilled to have made it onto your shortlist. We tailor these days to help you gather as much information as possible and hope that it makes it easier for you to make that important final decision.

We know that visiting the university, seeing our beautiful campus and meeting our staff and students is a really important part of your decision-making.

FAQs

Can family and friends join me?

Of course! Choosing a university is a big decision, so we’d absolutely encourage anyone who is supporting you to get involved and join you on the Offer Holder Day. 

Please be aware that we may need to limit the number of additional guests who accompany you to certain sessions on the day. 

Do I need to book onto an Offer Holder Day?

Yes, you will need to book a place onto the Offer Holder Day before the event occurs. Please use the booking form above. You can find out what days your specific course is being offered using our course sessions drop down. 

When you complete the booking form, you will also receive further info about the day.  

 

Do you have support for students with a disability?

You can let us know about your access requirements when you book onto our Offer Holder Days. We’ll then work with you to do everything we can to support you. You will also be able to have a one-to-one appointment with our disability inclusion service on the day. 

If you would like to check our campus for its accessibility, we have worked closely with AccessAble (the leading provider of access information for disabled people in the UK) to produce an assessment of our campus and facilities. This work has provided detailed information about our access; find out more about their assessment of our campus and facilities.

Find out more about accessibility on campus or contact us on enquiries@salford.ac.uk.

Please contact our disability inclusion service for study related support.

Travel bursary

Our travel bursary is based on how far you’re travelling to the Offer Holder Day and there are five different payment bands. The minimum amount is £15 for those with a shorter journey. The maximum contribution is £120 for those travelling from further afield. Please note that payment is made to the offer-holder only, not for each person attending the event.  

We know that the cost of living is having widespread impact, and our travel bursary scheme aims to make a contribution to the cost of your travel, rather than cover your costs entirely. Full details will be sent to you when you've booked your place.

You will need a UK bank account to receive a travel bursary payment.

What do I book if I have an offer for more than one course?

In many cases, if you have been made an offer onto the Foundation Year option, you will be able to speak to tutors on the same Offer Holder Day and you do not need to book again. If you have an offer for a different course, we would recommend contacting our Enquiries team at enquiries@salford.ac.uk to discuss your event options.

When are the Offer Holder Days?

Dependent upon what course you are interested in, there are multiple dates to choose from:

  • Saturday 17 February 2024
  • Wednesday 6 March 2024
  • Wednesday 13 March 2024
  • Wednesday 20 March 2024
  • Wednesday 27 March 2024
  • Tuesday 23 April 2024
  • Saturday 11 May 2024

Please use our course sessions drop down above to choose your course and see what dates are applicable. 

Who can attend an Offer Holder Day?

Offer Holder Days are more focused than an Open Day, so they are for offer-holders only. It doesn’t matter whether or not you have been to an Open Day before, you will receive more of a subject focus at the applicant event and it will give you a chance to find out more in depth information about your chosen course. 

Choosing the right University is an important decision so we would also encourage parents, carers and supporters to attend the day as well. 

Need further information?
