Pre-arrival information
Making practical arrangements before you get here will help your day go smoothly.
Disabled visitors should contact us in advance to discuss access requirements.
Open Day locations
Our Open Days take place across a number of campuses. Some activities will be located at different sites. For example:
- Students interested in Medicine will be able to visit the facilities at the Chancellor's Building, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh;
- Pollock Halls of Residence will also be open to visitors during the day.
Please note: Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies facilities are not open at the Open Day on Friday 14 June. For more information, please see the subject page for Veterinary Medicine.
Finding your way around the University
Use the campus maps in the Open Day programme to find your way between the different venues.
Look out for our student ambassadors who can point you in the right direction. They will be dressed in red University t-shirts.
What if I get lost or split up from my group?
If you get lost, ask a student ambassador or member of staff to point you in the right direction.
You may wish to arrange a meeting point should you get split up from the rest of your group. We suggest the foyer of the David Hume Tower (George Square campus) or the Chancellor’s Building (Royal Infirmary).
Access for disabled applicants or visitors
If you or one of your party has any specific access requirements (such as level access to events, induction loop, sign language interpreter) please provide us with details on your booking form.
You can also phone or email Student Recruitment and Admissions directly to let us know your access requirements.
You may also wish to speak with the Student Disability Service on the Open Day to see what support might be available for you.
Any questions?
If you have any questions before Open Day, please contact the Student Recruitment and Admissions team.
If you have any queries on the day, feel free to talk to one of our student ambassadors or a member of staff at one of the Open Day Helpdesks.
