What to expect at an Open Day

At the heart of a UEA Open Day is the chance to learn about your subject, explore the campus and facilities, and meet lecturers and students. You'll also get to talk to expert staff about admissions, careers, student finance and support.

Explore our award-winning campus

Our friendly staff and students will show you the campus (a Green Flag winner nine years in a row). You’ll also get to see accommodation, our amazing Sportspark and world-class art gallery, the Sainsbury Centre.

Get the inside story from our students

We think it’s best to learn about our vibrant campus community from the people who know it best – our students. If you have any questions, look for our student ambassadors in the pink t-shirts! If you have questions about UEA before your Open Day, you can chat to our staff and students.

Get key information in our Open Day FAQs

We know you (and your parents and carers) have questions. Check out our Open Day FAQs for the information you need about booking, planning your visit and what to do on the day. If you have any questions we haven’t answered, email recruitmentevents@uea.ac.uk.
