A Next Steps Day is designed for students who are considering applying, have already applied, or have received an offer to study with us.
It’s your opportunity to experience the university first hand. You’ll explore the campus, take a closer look at your chosen course, and speak directly with academic staff and current students. It’s the perfect setting to ask questions, gain real insight into student life, and feel confident about your decision.
If you’re thinking about confirming your place, a Next Steps Day will give you the clarity and reassurance you need to take that next step with confidence.

Join our vibrant international student community
You’ll be welcomed in a safe and supportive environment, perfect for you to learn and succeed.
Did you know that roughly 30% of our students are international? Studying alongside those on other courses, you’ll be able to share ideas and get a fresh perspective, all while making lasting relationships from around the world.
Study as a mature student
There are many ways you can experience higher education. Around a third of undergraduates in the UK are mature students of all ages and backgrounds (dataset provided by UCAS).
As a mature student you benefit from a range of experiences which you can carry forward into your new academic life. These life experiences can help you a lot, embedding your thinking and equipping you better for your new challenges and opportunities.
More than just study
There’s always something to keep you busy when you’re not studying, whether it’s catching up with friends in our on-campus gym or bar, or getting involved in our clubs and societies.
With an active Students’ Union there’s loads you can do to make the most of your university experience. We know health and well-being is important, so you’ll also get free treatment in the training clinic. You’ll also be part of our close-knit community, surrounded by like-minded individuals who are all on specialist health sciences courses.
