Create a plan of action<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nMake sure you don\u2019t miss out on opportunities at Open Day, by planning ahead.<\/p>\n
A couple of things you could think about:<\/p>\n
\n- Research a few different universities and explore all of your options and plan to go to a few Open Days.\u00a0You\u2019ll be spending a good chunk of your young life there, so you want to make sure it\u2019s a good fit.<\/li>\n
- Note down the dates and times for the Open Days. There\u2019s nothing worse than traveling to a university for an Open Day on the wrong day, especially if you live far away!<\/li>\n
- Plan your days by checking the university open day schedule. This way, you won\u2019t miss out on important lectures and all the fun stuff happening around campus.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \n
Bring along some support <\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nCompany is always good! They can give you a second opinion, help you navigate your way around a campus and be an extra set of hands to carry all your brochures\/free goodies.<\/p>\n
\n- \n
Download all the important apps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nOur favourite apps for the UNSW are the following:<\/p>\n
\n- UNSW Open Day app<\/li>\n

- UNSW Map app, so you can easily navigate around campus<\/li>\n
- Twitter and Instagram. To get real-time communication and to share your experience with others.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n- \n
Ask lots of questions <\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\nDon\u2019t be afraid to speak up and take advantage of having access to students and staff that are there to help you.<\/p>\n
