Yes, our Northumbria University Experience Days are exclusively for offer holders and are a more in-depth experience compared to an Open Day. Now that you have narrowed down your search for where you would like to study it’s time to get some hands-on knowledge of what it is like to be a student at Northumbria. We do this through hosting engaging course sessions that give you an insight into the modules, facilities and teaching staff. In addition to this you will be in good company with like-minded students interested in the same course as you.

Our on-campus Northumbria University Experience Days, provide a great opportunity for you to take a better look around the campus and get used to where you will be spending the majority of your time here at Northumbria.

You will get the chance to have conversations with current students and your teaching staff. There will be personalised subject specific talks designed for offer holders, allowing you to collaborate with other students who are applying for the same course. This allows you to meet new people ahead of starting your degree, ensuring you get the most out of your time at Northumbria and setting you up for the best possible route to your future career.

UCAS applicants

If you have applied by UCAS you will only be able to accept or decline your offer once you have received all of your decisions from all of your choices. Once you have all of your decisions back, you will see a date in your UCAS Hub that you need to respond to your offers by. If you do not reply by the date specified your offer will be declined automatically for you by UCAS.  It is important that you do not allow this to happen, as it may not be possible to reinstate any offers later if the course becomes full.

DfE Apply applicants

You will need to respond to your offer on your Dfe Apply portal.

Direct Applicants

If you have applied directly to the University (either online on our website, via a representative or regional office or via your Student Portal if you are a current student) you will need to accept your offer on our applicant portal. 

To do this, you should use the ‘Respond to Offer’ button on your applicant portal, choose the course you wish to respond to and then accept or decline your offer.

If you have applied for more than one course at Northumbria, you should accept the course you wish to study and then decline any other applications. You can only hold one firm offer with Northumbria.

If you have previously accepted your Conditional Offer and are now Unconditional you will still need to accept your Unconditional Offer if you have applied directly.
