Our open events are a great way to find out more about studying at AECC University College.
You will have the opportunity to meet with academics, find out more about the courses we have to offer and ask any questions you may have.
At our Open Days, as well as course staff and student ambassadors, you'll also hear from our support staff, who can talk you through key aspects of applying to study with us - such as the admissions process, student finance and Student Services support.
