Why go to an open day?  

When you attend an open day, you'll get a gut feeling about the university. Open days will help give you clarity if you're not sure what course to choose. You'll be able to visit different departments and chat with lecturers and other department staff, there are often subject talks too. You'll also get to speak to current students. They can tell you whether they're satisfied with the teaching, what the local nightlife is like, what the best halls of residence are – pretty much anything. Don't forget to look at the accommodation for yourself and make time to walk around the surrounding area to see if you like it.  

Where is it located?  

AECC has one site called the Parkwood Campus which is in Bournemouth. You can get there by bus or train. If you go by car, there is free parking on-site during open days.  

Bournemouth has a growing reputation for being one of the best places in the country to come to study. With its beaches, nightlife and green spaces, it's got lots to do without it feeling overwhelming, like a big city might. The main clubs and bars are based in Lansdowne. Nearby you've also got the Jurassic coast and the New Forest if you fancy a day out.
