What are university exhibitions?

University exhibitions, also known as UCAS fairs, are events where you can explore many university stands under one roof. Higher education providers and employers attend ready to meet students. They take place at various locations across the country.

Who attends university exhibitions?

University staff and representatives will be there to answer all your questions. Some universities bring their students to these fairs. This means you can get academic advice and a good picture of student life at your chosen institution.

When do university exhibitions take place?

University exhibitions take place from February to September. This gives you plenty of time to make your mind up before sending off your application.
