You may find university very different for all sorts of reasons, particularly if you move away from home or are returning to learning - but there's lots of support for Passport members to help you through this.

We offer pre-entry activities and events as well as a full range of support services once you are at university - all to help you settle in.

As a Passport student you'll be personally invited to activities and events on campus, such as Open Days, Applicant Preview Days and Discovery Days where you will meet staff and find out more about subjects and facilities.

Off campus we can send a speaker into your school or college to discuss subjects to help you make your mind up about what you want to study.

Pre-entry events and activities include:

  • Discovery Days
  • Open Days
  • Campus Visits
  • Speakers into Schools and Colleges
  • Applicant Preview Days
  • Parents evenings
  • UCAS fairs
  • Progression Days
