Welcome
Dear visitor,
Welcome to UCAS’ higher education
exhibition. Today is your chance to start
broadening your horizons and thinking about
what’s next.
We all have different interests, motivations,
strengths, and ways we prefer to learn, that will
influence our future pathway. Friends, family,
and teachers will most likely have an input but
ultimately, the choice on what to do next has
to be your decision.
The first step is to do your research, and today is
a great starting point – make sure you make the
most of it!
Don’t forget, there is a wide range of options
available after school or college, so consider
them all:
• university or college
• apprenticeships
• gap years
• internships
• volunteering
With our exhibitors, and UCAS experts on hand
to help, today’s the day to get answers to any
questions you may have.
Have fun!
All set to start
exploring your options?
