students, as well as enjoying the vibrant student community that we have here in Newcastle. Be sure to talk to our staff and students and ask lots of questions while you are here. We hope you enjoy your day! Northumbria University Open Day Team ug.events@northumbria.ac.uk
We recommend that you arrive on campus at least 30 minutes before your first talk or activity to give yourself time to check in at one of our Registration points. Please note that information, advice and guidance received at the Open Day is accurate as of today, but can be subject to change as we review our courses to ensure that they are up to date and relevant and that you are receiving the best possible educational experience. Our website is the most up to date place to review our information. In the event of changes the University will consult and inform students in good time and will take reasonable steps to minimise disruption.
