University visits
I know there are a few of us on here planning university open days with our 17/18 year olds soon so I thought a thread to chat about them may be useful.
My 17 yo DD is thinking of studying Biology, but is very unsure as she is also interested in script writing, film production, photography. She is studying Biol, psychology, drama, Eng lit and lang at AS level so keeping her options open. We are visiting Exeter next weekend, 2 June. We are also visiting Bristol and Birmingham in June. We have 2 more in September in Aberystwyth and Worcester. My DD wants to be within a 3 hour drive from home so is basing her options on this, plus how interesting the modules looked in the prospectus's. We have no idea what to expect from open days. Her elder brothers both went to universities, but that was years ago as there is a big age gap between them and her. We were hoping to stay overnight at the cities but due to our pets care, this would be difficult. However we are hoping to spend a couple of hours in each city for a meal and a wander around to get a feel for it. I do not drive but DH does so we are driving to most of them. However, DH works some weekends so DD and I are catching trains to Bristol and Birmingham as she may need to do this sometimes when she moves to uni, so this will help her get a feel for the travel route too. So I thought this thread may help us and other Dibb families preparing for this big step next year. We could compare experiences, and ask questions and help each other. Has anyone been for a visit yet? What was it like? Where has everyone planned to go? Hope all our children find ones they like 😀 |
