E42: Make the most of uni fairs – before, during and after

In this episode, we're guiding students through every stage of a university fair – helping them feel prepared before it starts, confident while it's happening, and clear on what to do next.

University fairs can be a brilliant opportunity to explore your options, ask questions, and gather the info you need to make informed choices about your future. But with so many stands, conversations and decisions, where should you begin?

We’re joined by an experienced guest who has supported thousands of students at fairs across the UK, in conversation with student panellist Reece who recently attended fairs as a student. They share practical tips, common pitfalls, and the advice they wish every student knew.

We’ll cover:

• What a university fair actually is – and what you’ll be doing on the day
• How to prepare in advance, including the smart questions to ask
• Whether to shortlist who to speak to – or keep an open mind
• How to avoid common mistakes and make the most of your conversations
• What to do after the event – and how to follow up effectively

If you’re heading to a uni fair soon, this episode will help you get the most out of the experience – before, during and after.
