If you’re unable to attend one of our Open Days, then booking onto a campus tour will give you another opportunity to see the highlights of either the Caerleon campus or the new City campus, and experience a taste of life here at Newport.
You’ll be guided by one of our student ambassadors who will be able to tell you all about life here as a student.
Each tour lasts approximately 30 minutes and features the main facilities at the campus you choose to visit.
When the tour has finished, you’ll be taken to the main refectory where you can enjoy a drink and a snack. You may want your guide to join you for this, to talk to you further about the University - the choice is yours.
