The free tote bag, too many leaflets to carry, the fancy sandwiches – yep, it’s an open day.

Often the first time you see your future university’s campus, the open or applicant days are the first time you actually feel the vibe of the university. You can take a deep breath and realise this is the place for you, or you can step off at the train station and turn straight back around.

We follow Will and Romana attending one of Manchester Metropolitan University’s Applicant Days and speak to the people attending, finding out what they’re most afraid of, what they’re most excited for and catch up with their parents about how many phone calls they’re expecting.
