What does the tour include?

We are able to offer in-person, campus-led tours by our student ambassadors. These tours will cover the whole of our main campus. The student guiding the tour will be well-placed to answer any specific questions you may have – it’s worth coming prepared with a list of things you would like to know more about.

When are campus tours and how to book?

We run these tours on Wednesday afternoons at 12:00. If you would like to attend a Wednesday afternoon campus tour, please register below.

Are there subject-specific visits?

No – we do not run subject-specific tours. Our regular campus tours do not include subject-specific visits but we are happy to try to tailor something to your requirements.
Please email your course of interest and desired time to visit to campustours@plymouth.ac.uk and we’ll see what we can do.
Please note that we cannot guarantee that your subject-specific request will be successful due to timetabling and course commitments.
Applicant campus tours

Do you have an offer to study with us and couldn't attend an Offer Holder Day? Why not book onto one of our applicant campus tours?

All you have to do is follow the booking link below and state in the Special Requirements that you have an offer with us! This will send a notification over to the team and we can turn your regular campus tour into our applicant campus tours!

How is the applicant campus tour different to a regular campus tour?

Good question! For our applicant campus tours, we will include a walking tour of the campus with one of our student ambassadors, an academic meeting* and we will also send you a self guided city tour should you want to see the city of Plymouth and what it has to offer!
*If you do not wish to meet an academic, please let us know in the special requirements section of your booking. Please note that we cannot always guarantee an academic meeting due to teaching and work commitments however if we cannot coordinate a meeting, we will put you in contact with an academic via email.
