Cambridge Open Days, July and September 2023
Our next undergraduate Open Days will take place on Thursday 6 July and Friday 7 July.
The University of Cambridge’s Open Days are aimed at prospective applicants from Year 12 (or equivalent) and mature applicants (aged 21 or over), together with their parents or supporters, to help them learn more about the University.
Alongside the Open Days in July, we will be running Warm-Up Webinars, covering topics such as applying to Cambridge, how to pick your College and student finance.
We are also offering a smaller in-person Open Day in September on Friday 15 September 2023. More details about our September Open Day, including how to book a place, will be updated on this webpage in August.
Booking information
To attend one of our Open Days and Warm-up Webinars in July you will need to register in advance, whether you wish to attend in-person, online or both.
What to expect
The programme with details of all the activities will be available on this webpage in mid-June.
During the Open Day you can find out all about our courses, the Colleges and departments, University facilities, the application process, student life and finance via:
- Information stands
- Course presentations and sample lectures
- College and department tours
- Q&A sessions with current students and staff
The programme will run from 9:30am to 4:30pm (UK time) and is similar on both days, so you will only need to attend one day. This will give as many people as possible the opportunity to attend.
Please see our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) for more information.
Warm-up webinars
In the lead up to the Open Days, we will be running a series of webinars to help you in your journey to applying to study at Cambridge.
You can register for the webinars via the booking form at the same time as the Open Day. If you register and are not able to attend, you will receive a recording of the webinar afterwards.
