It was a great experience - we got to see all the facilities and meet other students who were interested in the same things as me.

Testimonials

My son had a great time and made some lovely friends. The residential was fantastically well organised and proved to be an excellent taster of what life could be like at university.

This trip was honestly one of the best I have been on. We created a really good friendship group and enjoyed fun social activities at Tees Barrage such as kayaking and high ropes. I would really recommend coming to the residential. It’s such a good Uni and they have great facilities for cyber security, the new digital building is also really cool.

I couldn't praise the residential highly enough. It was well planned, well organised and just excellent. They absolutely loved it, it has really helped them grow in confidence and they made friends that they have already met up with, from all around the country. It has also confirmed that they want to study psychology at university. Thank you so much for offering this opportunity to them.

I wanted to say thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity. My young person got to explore the University, hear from other students and professionals and gain an insight into University life. Everything seemed well run and I felt like my young person was safe at all times

This residential is such a good opportunity for young people to get out of their comfort zone and meet other like-minded students from around the UK. My favourite part were the social activities because they allowed me to break out of my bubble and see life in a different prospect. I would recommend this residential a million times over. If you don’t know anyone, don’t worry, you will meet so many new people and make new friends.

I really enjoyed the diverse range of disciplines covered in the residential. I’m currently trying to decide which branch of engineering to follow, so having a taste of each was very useful. My favourite parts were the flight simulator and talking to the chemical engineer representative. As it was such a small, focussed group we were able to have an in-depth discussion that was very insightful. The social activities during the evenings allowed me to form surprisingly strong friendships with the girls in my group despite the short timeframe.
