PSYCHOLOGY @ BANGOR Congratulations on being offered a place to study Psychology at Bangor University. The latest National Student Satisfaction Survey placed Bangor Psychology in the top 5 in the UK, so you can be sure that you have made a wise choice!
The most convenient way to book a place is via our on-line booking system www.bangor.ac.uk/psychology/undergraduate/open-dayregistration.php. Alternatively you can fill in the enclosed reply slip. We suggest that you book your place as soon as possible as our Open Days are always very popular. Due to the number of applicants we receive, we regret that we are unable to send written confirmation of your booking unless you return the postcard with your reply slip.
Choosing a university course is obviously a decision you will not take lightly and you will probably be starting to suffer from information overload! This is why we have prepared an Open Day that tells you only what you need to know about your course, the School, the University and the City of Bangor. Our Open Day is not just designed to let you know what to expect from the course, it is designed to give you a realistic idea of student life at Bangor. As you will see, the open day itinerary gives you the opportunity to see around the campus and city, check out the accommodation and get all the details on your chosen course. Our enthusiastic students will be able to answer any questions you might have about the student experience, and provide first-hand knowledge of what it’s really like to study Psychology at Bangor. We will provide you with refreshments and lunch and we’re also offering up to £35 to assist you with your travel expenses. Can you think of a reason not to come?

WHY COME TO AN OPEN DAY? We are sure that you’ve already done your homework and know that we are the largest top-rated Psychology School in the UK, but do you really know what it would be like to study and live here for the next 3 years? There is a lot more to student life than the course you study, and to be successful as a student you will need to be happy with your surroundings as well as with your course. Many students rate Open Days as the most important factor in deciding which university to attend, so this is probably your best opportunity to find out whether Bangor will suit you as a person as well as a student. We can tell you about our world-class research, the excellent quality of our teaching and our spectacular location, but only you can judge whether this is the place for you. Come along to one of our Open Days and see for yourself.
