We will be holding offer holder events on the following dates. Book your place now:

Attendance at an accommodation talk is by pre-booking only. We suggest you book your offer holder event first using the link above then come back to book your place at an accommodation talk. Please note that when accessing myvisitday, your accommodation talk booking won’t appear in the personal itinerary. Book your place at an accommodation talk.

Joint honours students

Please note that if you're a Joint Honours student, you will be invited to an offer holder event provided by the school from which you received your offer. However, there may be an opportunity to visit your second School if they are running an offer holder event on the same day. Please ask our Admissions team at your School of Music offer holder event to confirm if this is possible.

What to do if you can’t attend

We completely understand that not everyone will be able to attend an offer holder event but that doesn’t mean you should miss out. Once the on-campus events are over we will be updating this page with on demand content to help you find out more about studying in Leeds. In the meantime though, if you have any questions please feel free to contact our Admissions Team

Accessibility

If you have any access requirements please email our Admissions Team so we can ensure you get the most out of your visit. For example, booking a blue badge parking space for on campus events or providing a transcript or captioned video after the online event.
