  • Receive helpful guidance and tips on transitioning from A Level to undergraduate studies
  • Find out more about the bespoke support available to WP students once you arrive
  • Meet current students from similar backgrounds
  • Ask any questions and address concerns or worries

Hear more about this event from Dr Lory Barile, Widening Participation Lead in the Department of Economics in this short video:
