Reasons to Attend an Open Day

Attending an open day is one of the best ways to get a true feeling of a university and discover the things you don't get to see in a prospectus or on a website. 

Here are our top 10 reasons why you should attend a university open day:

We have campuses across three locations, in Newport, Cardiff and Pontypridd, giving our students a mix of city and country life.

Find out why USW could be the perfect choice for your higher education and how we can prepare you for a successful career.

Find out from our student ambassadors and students union what it’s like to be a USW student inside and outside of the classroom.

Get familiar with your surroundings and imagine yourself spending the next few years of your life with us.

You’ll soon notice that our teaching spaces are more than your traditional classroom. They are a place to develop your skills, nurture your talent and put theory into practice.

Be introduced to our teaching staff, ask questions, and get to know the people who will support you throughout your time at university.

We will talk you through your accommodation options and show you around the rooms to help you make the right choice based on your needs and budget.

You’ll get to ask our student money team your questions, find out about the cost of studying and learn what funding options are available. 

Chat to our student ambassadors who will give you the low down on life as a USW student and share their tips and experiences with you.

At USW, we want you to have the best experience possible. Throughout your student journey, you will have access to resources to help you thrive.
