Who is the Open Day for?
If you are interested in applying to Edinburgh College of Art, or just want to find out more about the wide range of courses available for study here, we recommend visiting the College on our annual Open Day. This year’s event takes place on Friday 30 October 2009 and runs from 9am - 5pm.
The Open Day is predominantly aimed at prospective students considering undergraduate study. Parents, teachers and careers advisers are also welcome to attend. If you are considering postgraduate study, you may find it more beneficial to make an individual appointment with the relevant department - visit the postgraduate taught programmes section for more information. However, you are most welcome to attend the Open Day and academic staff will be on hand to answer your questions. We also encourage anyone interested in part-time study or evening classes to come along.
Ultimately, the Open Day is the perfect opportunity for you to find out more about the courses, tour the facilities and meet students and staff. There will also be plenty of students around on the day who will be able to share their own experiences with you.

Booking is not essential, although we ask that you register your place with us using the registration form to help us prepare for your visit. Please see Registration.
