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.

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.

The residential fostered an environment where curiosity and innovation thrived. We were empowered to explore the world of engineering in hands-on, practical ways. For any girl considering a career in engineering, this residential is an amazing opportunity to ignite your passion, learn new skills, and build connections. It was an unforgettable experience!

Probably the most fun I've ever had! There was an amazing mix of social and academic activities, giving me a real insight into what both these areas could look like at university. I took park in the law subject session, it was so engaging and helped me decide that this is definitely what I want to study at university. The staff and student ambassadors made it a very relaxed, welcoming and supportive environment. I came in really nervous and I came out confident and feeling like a completely different person!
My son was made to feel welcome and safe from the moment he arrived. Everyone was kind and supportive, which helped him settle in and enjoy the experience. He had a great time taking part in the activities, especially the sessions around IT technology. It’s helped him feel more confident about his future and he's excited to explore his university options.

I found the whole experience really informative and fun - enjoyed the social events and academic sessions and felt like I really knew the campus by the end of it
Teesside University was a 100/10 experience which I’d recommend to anyone. Through practical and engaging workshops, I got a proper insight into the subject I’m interested in. One of the most memorable moments was the quiz night and karaoke because everyone got involved and the energy was amazing. The campus is so cutting-edge, I really enjoyed exploring it. The student ambassadors were also down to earth and helpful. I left the residential feeling much more confident about going to university. Thank you!

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.

This experience has motivated me to work harder to achieve my goals. I connected and had fun with like-minded people who I would never have met if I didn’t attend. Social activities were hands down the best part of the trip! The academic side of the residential allowed me to explore new ideas and techniques such as DNA stamping and biotechnology. It aligned with my A level studies and will help me in the future. Before the residential I had never explored Middlesbrough but it’s now a place of great memories and one to remember.
