Aberystwyth University Open Days 2012 - we’ll help with your groups travel expenses…

We know you want your students to find the best university to help them achieve their ambitions. We are also aware that sometimes it is difficult to justify the cost of bringing a group of students to visit universities outside your immediate locality.

Over the last two years attendances at our Open Days has increased dramatically and our research shows that two out of every three pupils who visit us choose to study here.

To help you to visit us, we are offering you up to £100 to subsidise your travel costs. To thank you, and any other teachers who visit an Open Day, we will also provide you with a free lunch.

Rest assured that your students will be in the best hands whilst they visit, leaving you to explore the University and the surrounding area. Student ambassadors and members of staff will be available to ensure that your pupils know what’s going on, where to be, and how to get the most out of their day. This will also be a great opportunity for your students to ask our students about their personal experiences, and find out first hand what university life is really like.

Pupils will benefit talking to lecturers from the subjects of their choice, and from tours of the campus, including:

teaching and learning facilities
accommodation
sports facilities and the
Students’ Union

You and your students have three opportunities to visit us:

Wednesday, 4^th July 2012
Wednesday 17^th October 2012 and
Saturday, 20^th October 2012.

Secure your place by contacting David Moyle, Schools Liaison Manager: dom@aber.ac.uk, 01970 6221972.

Bring a group of students to visit our Open Day and let us show you why we are the top university in the country for student satisfaction, and student experience*, and why we’ve been voted 4^th in the UK for Teaching and Learning.
