Making Connections

As well as attending on-campus open days, you may also be connecting with universities online.

Students socialising in Halls

Where will you live?

When you start university, you’ll probably be leaving home for the first time so finding the right place to live can make a real difference. 

Living in university owned halls of residence is a great way to meet new people who are in the same position as you. You’ll make friends, socialize and there’s a really great support network to help you settle in.
