Applicant Days and Open Days

Visiting the campus at Hull and meeting the people in the Department of Computer Science really is the best way to find out what life is like here, and whether this is a place where you would like to study.  Computer Science Applicant Days and University Open Days are designed to provide you with information about all aspects of student life at Hull.

Computer Science Applicant Days

These are organised specifically for students who have applied to study at Hull and have been made an offer. They take place in February and March to accommodate visits prior to the UCAS deadline for students making their final decisions on where they will study. You will have the chance to ask questions, and to meet our staff. Our current students will act as guides to show you around the Department and will be glad to answer questions about all aspects of student life.

These events are also supported by the Student Recruitment Service and include morning tours of accommodation, information and advice stands and even a bus tour of the city of Hull. Download a full Applicant Day programme.

The Department of Computer Science's 2011/2012 Applicant Days have now finished however new dates for the academic year 2012/13 will be posted here soon.

When you apply through UCAS for one of our courses you will be sent an invitation to book on-line for an Applicant Day once an offer has been made to you.

Disability Services

The online booking form asks for some information regarding any disability needs for your visit – this is so that if you have a disability we can ensure you have an enjoyable day and also confidence that the University will be able to cater for your needs whilst studying. 

Please email us at dcs-ug@hull.ac.uk  if you would like to meet with the Department’s Disability Tutor when you attend an Applicant Day.  You may also find the University website section on Disability Services helpful.

Travelling to the University

Please see the University’s travel pages which contain details of travel routes, local transport and links to maps and campus plans.

Travel expenses

We appreciate that visiting a number of universities can become quite costly.  For this reason, we will reimburse rail fare in mainland UK for UCAS applicants to Department of Computer Science courses for standard return rail fare to Hull using a 16-25 Railcard. 

University Open Days

These are organised by the University's Student Recruitment Service for students considering applying to the University in the following year.  They take place in July and October.  Further details are available on the University of Hull's web pages.
