Applicant Day at the University of Aberdeen

Our applicant days for undergraduate students take place in February and March each year. The Applicant Days are only for those holding an offer of a place at the University and are designed to give a broad insight into the student experience at the University of Aberdeen.

The MA Applicant Day is for students holding an offer for Arts, Humanities and Social Science based subjects whils the Science and Engineering Applicant Day is for those holding an offer within the any branch of Science or Engineering.

For international students, attending the Applicant Day is not always possible. Rest assured, all prospective students, including their parents, teachers and advisors, are welcome to visit the University any time during the year to meet faculty and staff and to tour of the campus.

To make an appointment, please contact the Student Recruitment & Admissions Service at sras@abdn.ac.uk
