What to expect

Accommodation

Choosing where you’ll live is a big part of preparing for university and we’re right here to help you feel confident about it.

Join our “Accommodation – The Student Experience” Q&A session to get honest answers to your questions. You can also speak to our friendly team at the Information Fair to understand more about your options and how our allocation procedure works.

Many of our first-year students live on campus and our Open Day is a great opportunity to see what that experience is really like. You can see our accommodation on guided trails, step inside real student rooms, and chat to current students about day-to-day life. It's a great opportunity to view the different options available and help you to move here with confidence.

Academic and Student Life Talks

Attend departmental sessions to speak to our current students and staff. You can also meet staff from our student support teams at the Information Fair who will contribute to your student experience. We also have student life sessions running throughout the day (we'd recommend booking onto our ‘Welcome to Warwick' talk, alongside ‘Accommodation - the Student Experience and ‘Applying to Warwick’, as these sessions are popular).

Sports and Societies Campus Tours

Explore our wonderful campus! Head to our campus tour tents where our friendly student ambassadors will be ready to take you on a guided tour. Visit our central campus sites, including Warwick Arts Centre. If you’re interested in seeing our sports facilities, we also run a separate tour of our Sports and Wellness Hub. Tours last around 45 minutes.
