Virtual Open Day
Thank you for registering for our Virtual Open Day (Thursday 09 February) – a fantastic opportunity to meet our incredible academics and staff.
If you are unable to attend, we also run live chat sessions with individual tutors on an ongoing basis. You can also contact us at admissions@dartington.org if you are unable to attend but would still like to talk to our academics or staff.
timetable
We have split our timetable into three sessions.
The first is an introduction to studying at Dartington Trust, and includes a brief look at each of our courses – we highly recommend you attend this if you haven’t studied here before.
After this, you’ll have the opportunity to join breakout rooms, within the webinar, where you can dig deeper into the courses themselves.
We have also provided a range of links that will help you discover more about our campus and life at Dartington.
Lastly, we will finish with an admissions live chat session at 19.00 – 20.30, please click here to join. Please be aware there is a morning admissions drop in session at 9.30 am (UK time).Â
Please ensure you look at the programme below ahead of time and ensure you know the times of the sessions you wish to attend.
