Discover University: Supporting the Journey to Higher Education

The University of Exeter are running a series of free webinars designed to help parents and guardians learn more about the journey to higher education.

Hosted by the University of Exeter these free, online events will happen throughout 2023/24. The events have been designed for parents and carers and anyone supporting young people in making decision about their futures. 

The decision to go to university is a big step for students, and finding the most suitable course and place to study can be a daunting task. We recognise that parents, guardians, carers and relatives can all play a vital role in choosing and applying for university. To support families during this process, whether you have some or no experience of higher education, we’re running a series of webinars to give advice on everything from finances to making the transition from school to university.
