SOMLAL and Germanic Studies Undergraduate Open Days
Please come and meet us! All applicants receiving offers are invited and encouraged to attend an Open Day in the Department. These take place in February and March.
If you are thinking of studying languages at Sheffield before you have filled out your UCAS application, you are warmly welcome on one of our Summer Open Days.
Our Open Days aim to give you an idea of what it would be like to be a student at Sheffield, within Germanic Studies but also as part of the School of Modern Languages. You will get a formal presentation, a campus tour with our students and an informal meeting with students and staff in Germanic Studies. You get the opportunity to ask all your questions and to get a real feel for the place. We also organise a visit to our student accommodation for you. Our current students always say how useful an Open Day visit was for them.
Booking your place
If you have received an offer from SOMLAL and would like to come to an open day, please follow the link on the right hand side of the page to book your place. You will need your Personal ID code provided by the University.
