To ensure that we cater for all visitor needs and preferences, all events will include on-campus and online options. If you attend an on-campus event, you will also be able to access the online materials and recordings after you have visited us in person.
We are only able to offer a limited number of places for our on-campus events. To avoid disappointment, we recommend that you book your place as soon as possible.
Please browse our Frequently Asked Questions for more information, or email opendays@qmul.ac.uk if you need to get in contact.

Further information about the event including pre-arrival information, travel advice if attending an on-campus event, and advice on making the most of your day will also be sent via email in the weeks leading up to the event.
When you book your open event, you need to book for your subject of choice. You can then book a time slot.
If you are unable to book onto the on-campus event for your chosen subject, this means that the event is at capacity but you will be able to register for the online event.
Most talks run for around 30 minutes each.
Two guests can attend with a prospective student and they will need to register via the booking form. Alongside prospective students, visitors attending as guests will require a ticket. Friends who are also considering Queen Mary should complete their own registration form rather than attend as someone’s guest so that we are better able to accommodate their needs and interests.
Yes, we advise all visitors to register their attendance to ensure they're able to gain access to their booked session(s). You will receive a confirmation email when you register online for the open day and this confirmation email will be resent to you in the final week leading up to the event.
This email will include a QR code which will be used to check you in on the day. Please either bring a printed version of the code with you or a copy of it on your mobile phone or other devices. When you arrive on campus, please visit one of our check-in points and show staff your event ticket.
The Open Events take place at our Mile End campus in the heart of east London, only minutes from central London. Find out more about travelling to Queen Mary.
Car parking for visitors is not offered on our campus and due to our central location we strongly advise visitors to use public transport when visiting us. Local parking restrictions also apply on weekdays and weekends. There are very limited blue badge holder spaces available.
If you require parking and did not book it via the booking form, please email opendays@qmul.ac.uk.
Due to limited capacity, you will only be able to book onto two subject events which will include all subject talks. If you are interested in more than one subject, you can also register for the online events to access as many subject sessions as you like.
Yes - Campus tours will be delivered from 10.30am – 4pm on both our Mile End and Whitechapel campuses. Tours in Mile End will be delivered from the Student Services Fair in the Octagon, Queens’ Building.
Queen Mary is a campus-based university which makes it a particularly attractive choice for disabled students. Much of our Mile End and Whitechapel campuses, including all of the Student Village, has been built with good accessibility for disabled people. Access Guides for our campuses are available online which give you information about our buildings and access routes for wheelchair users. There are also limited blue badge holder car park spaces available during Open Events. Please let us know about any support required on the registration form.
The online event will consist of on-demand and live content. If you are attending in real-time, it is important to prioritise the live sessions as these will provide you with an opportunity to engage directly with members of staff, students and alumni.
If you miss any of the live sessions, you will be able to watch them after the event has taken place.
Although you will have signed up for a specific area of interest, you will be able to access all subject areas at the online event. Please bear in mind that some subject sessions take place at the same time, but all content will be accessible two-hour after the event if you do experience schedule clashes.
The online events will give you the opportunity to explore the accommodation options available, and you can also find information on our website prior to the event.
Yes - a digital campus tour will be included in your event schedule which will be emailed to you prior to the event.
If you have any accessibility requirements you need to make us aware of, please email us at opendays@qmul.ac.uk.
