Reunion

Reunion, part of Explore, is an engaging opportunity for your students to see what university life really looks like. Alumni from your college or sixth form will return to their school corridors and talk about their very own university experience, from application to preparing for a whole new and exciting life at university.

Students thinking about applying and those who already have will both benefit from taking part. All sessions are led by current UEA students who will explain university in their own words. Your students will get a chance to hear from ‘someone like them’ who can show them what is possible, share their own story and answer any questions.

There are two main talks, and both can be tailored to your students as needed:

• Student life – best for year 12 / level 3 year 1 – we’ll cover the application journey, life as a student and what to expect at university
• Preparing for university – best for year 13 / level 3 year 2 – we’ll cover top tips for transition to university, support available and practical things like what to pack

There’s loads of time for your students to ask questions and really find out what it is they want to know. Having access to these role models will be inspiring and supportive at the same time.
