Open days
Life at Essex
Our virtual gallery gives you an idea of what life is like at the University of Essex.
It's not always easy to travel to every university that you want to know about, so
our short videos help you learn more about studying here at Essex.
So, you've looked at our website and read about our outstanding
research reputation, wide range of study opportunities,
award-winning accommodation, supportive environment and fantastic
facilities that allow you to make the most of your time as a
student.
At our open days:
- Talk to academic staff about studying at Essex
- Get answers on applying from our admissions staff
- Hear talks on applying to university, finance and student
support
- Take a campus tour to view facilities and accommodation
UG open days
Book a place at our next undergraduate open day. As well as meeting staff from departments and from Undergraduate Admissions, who can answer any questions you have, you can speak to current students about life at Essex while taking a campus tour.
PG open day in March
Book a place at our postgraduate open day, on Wednesday 6 March, to find out more about

Book a campus tour
If you cannot make one of our open days, then why not book a campus tour at another
time? E-mail us and we can arrange for a student ambassador to show you around,
answering your questions about living and learning at our University.
