When choosing a university to study at, obviously you’d base your decision on things like the university’s reputation, the cost of tuition fees, or whether it offers a good course that you’re interested in.
All those rational considerations aside, the beauty of their university’s campus is also a point of pride for many students.
One of the reasons universities hold open days is to invite students and parents on campus so they can get a feel for the university’s character, and fall in love with its wide expanses of green lawn, and impressive architecture.
And it works – sometimes you can just sense that a university is a good fit for you the moment you step on campus.
