Campus tours

Campus tours are aimed at those who have not yet submitted their UCAS application, and are a good way to get a feel for the campus and to meet some current students.

Campus tours include:

A student-led walking tour of the campus featuring the major facilities:

  • Leeds University Students' Union
  • One of our libraries
  • Our sports centre, The Edge
  • One of our halls of residence (please note we may not be able to access to individual flats and bedrooms)

Campus tours do not include visits to individual departments; if you wish to visit an academic department you should contact them directly beforehand to see if it is possible to look around. Faculty and School contact details are listed online

Please note that departments are not always able to accommodate visitors due to academic commitments.

We offer tours most Wednesdays throughout the year, with more frequent tours available during peak times. Booking opens four weeks prior to each tour, so please return nearer the time if you do not see a suitable tour.

Open days

Our next undergraduate pre-application open days will be in June 2013. More information is available at www.leeds.ac.uk/opendays

Independent visits

If you're unable to make a guided campus tour or you would rather explore the campus on your own, you can arrange an independent visit. You can visit at any time - but remember that University buildings are not normally open at weekends and if there is a particular academic department you'd like to see you should contact the department directly beforehand to avoid disappointment.

Please download our self-guided tour, our directions sheet and campus map to make the most of your visit.
