Application support
We offer a range of support to applicants.
On Campus events
For international students
If you are planning to visit Edinburgh, you are invited to attend an information session aimed at answering the questions that international applicants want to ask about studying at Edinburgh.
Every Monday and Friday we run these sessions on our central campus. Through August we also run an extra session each Wednesday. They are designed to assist undergraduate applicants to the University.
The sessions are presented by one of our members of staff and they cover:
- An introduction to the Scottish Higher Education system
- The application process
- Accommodation for students
- Fees and finance
- Student life
At the end of the presentation, there is an opportunity to ask any other questions about Edinburgh or the application process.
These sessions last one hour.
Campus Tours
Our information sessions are designed to be combined with a campus tour.
There are two options:
Student-led tour
You’ll be led around the George Square campus by a Student Ambassador. There will be an opportunity to ask any further questions you may have. The tour lasts one hour.
Self-led tour
You can also follow our self-guided walking tours for a flavour of the University, the city and student life.
Open Days
The University also runs formal visit days which include a full programme of meetings tours and introductory sessions.
