Open Days and visiting
Applying to University in 2021 and beyond?
In 2021 we hope to bring you a mixture of ‘in person’ and ‘online’ Open Days.
Our online Open Days are designed to help you find out about studying at the University of Exeter and learn about the subjects we offer across our campuses in Devon and Cornwall. On dedicated days (dates to be confirmed) you can chat live to our staff and students and explore a range of web and video resources.

- 1 and 2 June 2021 - Undergraduate Open Days at our Penryn Campus in Cornwall

Given the ongoing situation with the pandemic we advise that you do not book transport or accommodation at this point in time. We will be sending updates approximately 6-8 weeks before the events.
We have recently launched 360 Virtual Campus Tours of our beautiful campuses in Devon and Cornwall that allow you to take a look around the campuses, their grounds and facilities including accommodation, sports centre, library, seminar rooms and lecture theatres.
In addition to an Open Day, why not take part in our Discover University series? Activity includes regular subject specific sessions delivered by our academic community, as well as information and guidance on choosing a university course, writing a personal statement, navigating the UCAS process and more! Each session includes a live Q&A with University of Exeter staff or students, which provides a great opportunity to gain insight into life and study at a University of Exeter campus.
Like and follow our Facebook page to receive regular updates, and book your place on the Discover University page.
International Students - Question and Answer sessions with an International Officer from your region
If you are an International student, resident outside the UK, we can organise a virtual Question and Answer session with one of our International Officers. This is an ideal opportunity to ask any questions you have regarding the application and confirmation process, programme structures, accommodation, University facilities or UK student life.
To book an international Q&A session please email your request to intoff@exeter.ac.uk.
Please include in your email the date, time you would like to meet and your Country of Domicile so that we can direct you to the correct international team. We will do our best to accommodate you, please to take into consideration the time difference when making your request.
