What To Expect

Head to our Fal Building Foyer, where our Student ambassadors and University Centre team will welcome you to the event. During your tour of the building, you will be able to visit specialist facilities such as the Learning Centre, Nursing Simulation Suite, Media facilities and our new state-of-the-art lecture theatre.

There will be a lot to take in during the event, so taking some information away with you will make your discussions at home a lot easier. Grab some of our course literature before you leave and a free notebook and pen to make notes while you talk with members of staff.

How to get here

If you’re planning to travel by car, parking for the event will be clearly signposted. The College’s ANPR Parking System will not be in operation.

If you’re planning to travel by bus, the Langarth Park and Ride is on the main road a few minutes away from the University Centre and there are bus stops right outside the campus. To view the latest and upcoming timetables please visit the Transport for Cornwall website.
