No. We run Open Days on the same days at each of our campuses in Canterbury, Epsom, Farnham and Rochester. We also hold course talks at the Maidstone TV Studios for the BA (Hons) Television Production course.

We recommend you visit the campus that offers the course you're most interested in. For a full list of the campuses and the courses they offer visit: uca.ac.uk/life-at-uca

We have lots of Open Days throughout the year, especially between September and December, so you can visit as many campuses as you like. However if this isn't possible for you, we'll try to answer any questions you may have about courses offered at our other campuses when you visit us.

As well as the opportunity to find out about a particular course, our Open Days will also give you the chance to get lots of general information about UCA as a whole.

You’ll be able to pick up a copy of the Open Day programme on the day or alternatively you can download a copy in advance from the open day event page.

Once you receive your Open Day programme, you can plan your day and work out what time you need to attend. Registration will open at 9.30am on all campuses, with the talks starting at 10am.  

Follow @UniCreativeArts on Twitter to receive live updates and use #UCAOpenDays to join the conversation before, during and after your visit!
