Quiet programme

Open days can be busy and overwhelming for some of our visitors, that's why we have a quiet programme. This programme is designed for students who are impacted by sensory overload, have autism spectrum condition, hearing or visual impairments, and applicants who may struggle with communication or have anxiety.

We have a quiet ‘Why University of Staffordshire’ session available in the morning, alongside quieter campus tours and a finance talk, and open day sessions are typically quieter in the afternoon.

Quiet programmes are only available at our Stoke-on-Trent campus due to the size of the event and campus.

Inclusive and supportive

Feel comfortable and get all the help you need from our friendly support team

Learn and explore with smaller groups

Avoid large audiences by attending smaller group sessions and quieter campus tours
