uclan.ac.uk/opendays Sunday 7 October Wednesday 10 October Saturday 17 November

Welcome Dear visitor, Welcome to UCAS’ higher education exhibition. Today is your chance to start broadening your horizons and thinking about what’s next.

We all have different interests, motivations, strengths, and ways we prefer to learn, that will influence our future pathway. Friends, family, and teachers will most likely have an input but ultimately, the choice on what to do next has to be your decision.

The first step is to do your research, and today is a great starting point – make sure you make the most of it!

Don’t forget, there is a wide range of options available after school or college, so consider them all: • • • • •

university or college apprenticeships gap years internships volunteering

With our exhibitors, and UCAS experts on hand to help, today’s the day to get answers to any questions you may have.

Have fun!

All set to start exploring your options?

To help you get the most out of your visit today, here are a few reminders…

Be prepared and make the most of your time – if you haven’t already, check out who’s exhibiting at today’s event and make note of those you don’t want to miss!

Ask questions, lots of questions – exhibitors are here to help. Make the most of them and the chance to gather information face-to-face, rather than online.

Start thinking about what you’d like – don’t follow the crowd! Use today to find out what interests you most and the different options available in your preferred subject area.

Most importantly, have fun! There’s a lot going on throughout the day, so get involved!
