Aberystwyth University’s 'What Admissions Tutors Are Looking For' webinar series

In Aberystwyth University’s What Admissions Tutors Are Looking For series, we are offering 3 quickfire, interactive 30 minute weekly events to support students with their current and future university applications.

Each session will focus on a specific ‘Faculty’ and will include a live conversation between a Student Recruitment Officer, an Admissions Tutor and a current student, with time allocated to engage participants in the conversation.

Webinar Episodes

ARTS & SOCIAL SCIENCES

In this session we covered applications to Arts & Social Sciences, discussing:

  1. What it’s like to study Arts & Social Sciences (more broadly and at Aberystwyth);
  2. What type of students flourish/excel and what students gain from Arts & Social Sciences courses;
  3. What the application process looks like and whether it differs much from other universities;
  4. What the university looks for in applications and suggestions to ensure that the application stands out, with a particular focus on Personal Statements.

 This is a great opportunity to hear from the people who will be making decisions about applications and who know what attributes make students thrive at university.
