College Discovery Days
Monday 29 June and Tuesday 30 June
Have you applied to college or sixth form at University College Birmingham?
All applicants have a unique opportunity to visit us for a taster day, where you can discover what life as a student is really like and enjoy a practical introduction to your chosen course(s).
As well as meeting your future classmates and tutors through hands-on subject tasters, you will also:
- Receive an overview of the college
- Have the opportunity to pre-enrol to make Results Day run more smoothly
- Meet the student support teams who will help you throughout your journey
The College Discovery Days have been split between Monday 29 June and Tuesday 30 June. Please see below for details of which courses you will attend on each day.
*Please note that you are welcome to bring guests with you. Guests will have the opportunity to attend a guest information session and visit the student information fair; however, they will not be permitted to attend the subject taster sessions.
