Edinburgh College is set to welcome prospective new students considering starting a course in August 2026 to its annual Open Days event.
The event starts on the 3rd of February and runs until the 7th across all four Edinburgh College campuses, offering an opportunity to meet curriculum teams, learn more about courses, tour the facilities, as well as finding out details surrounding the course application process.
Open Days begins at the Midlothian Campus on Tuesday the 3rd of February, running from 4pm until 7pm, followed by Milton Road on the 4th of February from 4pm to 7pm, Sighthill on the 5th from 4pm to 7pm, and finally Granton on the 7th of February, between 10am and 1pm.
Subject-specific sessions are on offer for a limited number of subject areas.
The event aims to give potential students an opportunity to experience campuses first-hand, getting an idea of what life could look like studying at the college. There are courses available that cater to students at any point in their education, including beginner-level courses, pathways to university, and continuous development courses.
Edinburgh College’s Principal, Audrey Cumberford, says it’s an exciting time for the College, and any prospective new students:
“It’s always amazing being able to open our campuses every February to welcome so many people who are considering taking their next step at Edinburgh College. Our Open Days represent a perfect opportunity for anyone considering furthering their education to find out what’s on offer here at the College, to explore all of our facilities, and learn what support will be available to them. I can’t recommend enough coming along to our events if you’re curious about what Edinburgh College can do for you and your future.”
