Open days FAQs

No, only prospective students need a ticket.

We ask that only one guest attend the subject talks with the prospective student. This is because these talks are particularly popular and space is limited. Additional guests are welcome to enjoy other activities available as part of the open day.  

For Vet School open days, each prospective student may attend their booked Vet School session with one guest only. This is due to space available within the facilities included in the Vet School tour.

You are welcome to cancel your booking by contacting opendays@surrey.ac.uk and one of the team will be able to assist.
