Higher Education Manager, Gail Corrin said: “Throughout the year UCM hold various open events, and this one is specifically for people considering higher education.

“Whether that’s school or college students who are currently doing their A levels or Level 3 qualifications and want to progress to university, mature students who want to attain an undergraduate degree to help with career progression or graduates who are looking for a postgraduate qualification.

“Studying higher education at UCM is a great option; we have subjects which are in popular demand, we have a high level of academic, learning and pastoral support available to students and our lecturers are experts in their subjects.
