Clearing campus tours

Are you thinking of coming to University in October 2026 but haven't visited Essex yet? Here's your chance!

Why not come along to one of our Clearing campus tours during the Clearing period, available at our Colchester Campus.

Maybe you've applied but haven't visited us yet, or perhaps you want to see our Colchester Campus for yourself before taking the plunge - whatever the reason, everyone is welcome. Bring your friends and family along too!

We'll be hosting tours of our Colchester Campus between Wednesday 15 July and Tuesday 18 August, so you can see what life at Essex is like. Our campus tours depart from the Silberrad Plaza and last roughly one hour. 

Tours of our lovely campus will be guided by our Student Ambassadors. Tours will include all the main areas of our Colchester Campus, as well as accommodation options if you're interested in having a sneak peak.

The timings are:

• Wednesday 15 July, 11am and 2pm
• Wednesday 29 July, 11am and 2pm
• Wednesday 5 August, 11am and 2pm
• Thursday 13 August, 11am and 2pm

• Sunday 16 August,11am and 2pm
• Monday 17 August, 11am and 2pm

If none of these dates works for you, or you would like to visit us sooner, you can book one of our routine campus tours.
