Open Days

Our Open Days are a great opportunity to find out about studying with us from our staff and students.

Our next Open Days

Our next undergraduate Open Days will take place at the University on: 

  • Friday 20 June 2025
  • Saturday 4 October 2025 
  • Saturday 25 October 2025

Booking

A booking is required for our Open Days in 2025. We expect that registration will open at the start of May for our June event, and the start of September for our October events. 

We recommend that you do not make travel arrangements or book transport until your place at an event has been confirmed. If you choose to do so before you have a confirmed place, we cannot guarantee space at the Open Day or specific activities if they become fully booked. 

Join our mailing list to be informed when registration opens. 

The programme for each Open Day will be available when registration opens. Most Open Day activities will take place between the hours of 9:30am and 4pm. 

Information to help you plan your trip to our undergraduate Open Days, whether travelling by train, bus, car or air.

Edinburgh College of Art (ECA) will be participating in the University Open Days and will hold an additional Open Day on Monday 2 June 2025 to coincide with the ECA Graduate Show.

If an event is cancelled

We will explore all options to avoid cancelling on-campus events. However, there may be rare occasions where events or sessions are cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. 

We are unable to accept liability for any costs you might incur, such as travel or accommodation. Therefore, you may wish to consider travel insurance or flexible tickets.
