SPARSHOLT College and University Centre Sparsholt will welcome new students at their next open evening on Thursday June 15.

Students interested in learning at the countryside campus in September 2023 or 2024 will have the opportunity to attend a subject-specific tour giving them a closer look at Sparsholt’s facilities, with time set aside to allow them to quiz lecturers.

The tours will give prospective students the chance to explore facilities like the new £2.5 million Animal Health and Welfare Research Centre, the Aquatic Research and Conservation Centre and the college’s Equine Centre.

There will also be an opportunity to book to meet the Apprenticeships Team, who will be able to answer questions about transport, funding and accommodation.

Julie Milburn, principal of Sparsholt College and University Centre Sparsholt, has expressed her delight at welcoming students onto campus.

She said: “We’re so excited to welcome students interested in joining us in September 2023 or 2024 onto campus to get a fantastic glimpse of the Sparsholt community through our subject-specific tours.

“As students explore what life at Sparsholt has to offer, we hope they leave feeling excited to advance their futures at Sparsholt.”

A pair of future open events have also been announced for Sparsholt College and UCS. A UCS degree course only open event will take place on July 6, while a college and degree course event will occur on October 7.
