Deciding to go to university is a big step in your child’s journey toward independence and although this is an exciting time, we understand that it can also be challenging. At Swansea, we believe that there is no better way to learn about the university than by you and your child experiencing an open day for yourselves.

This page informs parents and guardians about what to expect at an open day. In addition to this, you can join our parents and guardians community to receive more helpful tips and advice for your child.

Upcoming Open Days

We hold many in-person undergraduate open day events throughout the year. Our next on-campus events are on Saturday 15th February 2025 and Saturday 22nd March 2025.
