Additional info
Our Open House events are designed to allow prospective students, parents, teachers and careers advisors the chance to tour one or both campuses on the same day.
Each Campus Tour will include the majority of our academic and social facilities. The first three time slots also feature an Introductory Welcome Talk; the talks at Camden Campus and Hawkshead Campus are identical.
As most of the teaching takes place in Camden for our Biological Sciences courses we recommend visiting this campus, but the BSc Animal Biology, Behaviour, Welfare and Ethics course is based at Hawkshead for final year so if you are interested in this course you may wish to visit Hawkshead too.
We recommend visiting Hawkshead only if you are considering studying Veterinary Nursing (there is no teaching for this course in Camden).
While for Veterinary Medicine (BVetMed) both campuses are recommended as the first two years of the 5 year programme are spent at our Camden Campus and the final three years are spent at Hawkshead.

Choosing Time Slots
Our priority is to protect our students, staff and guests; as such we are staggering entry times and limiting attendance to 3 people per application (one student with two accompanying guests). This will allow us to keep room capacity and population density on campus at levels which will allow us to employ all COVID-19 safety restrictions. Within the application form you will be asked to select your preferred attendance time. You have the option to visit both campuses on the day or just one.
Please note, if you plan to visit both campuses you are responsible for organising transportation, typically this would take around 1 hour. Travel via train (Kings Cross Station to Potters Bar Station and vice-versa) is highly recommended and as such we suggest selecting slots with at least a 1-1.5 hour gap due to the time taken to get from campus to campus.
