Can’t make an open day?

If you are unable to make one of our college open days, you can still explore the campus with our virtual tour.  You can start at various points on campus and, just like Google Street View, you can walk from one area to another, taking a look at our facilities.  There are also some useful information and videos on your way round.

Or, if you are coming to the UK, but it doesn’t coincide with one of the open day dates, contact international@hartpury.ac.uk and we’ll arrange a special tour for you. Please note that you may not be able to meet current students or certain members of staff if you visit outside of term times.
