Our fairs allow students to meet universities, HE
institutions and apprenticeship providers from
all over the UK. We provide the ideal platform
for students to receive advice and guidance
so they can make informed choices about
their futures.

We are pleased to announce that UK University


& Apprenticeship Search will be bringing our
exciting event to Arena MK, on Friday 8th

run incredibly successful HE fairs primarily
in stadiums around the UK. We have
recently completed our Autumn event
season, which featured venues such as
the Emirates (London), Old Trafford
(Manchester), Anfield (Liverpool),
and St James’ Park (Newcastle).
We are delighted to now be
working with the University of
Buckingham to bring you
our new inspirational fair in
Milton Keynes.

with the opportunity to
speak to representatives
from Russell Group,
Red Brick and Modern
universities. Students
will also be able to talk
to a wide range of the
UK’s best apprenticeship
providers, HE colleges,
specialist institutions, and
student related organisations.
Exhibitors will be featured in

students of all ability, aiming to
widen participation whilst supporting

What makes our events special?


Emphasis on Individuality – We have a vast range of university, apprenticeship, and career
representatives at our events. We celebrate the different paths young people can take, and
are proud to present a variety of options. Every student is unique, and we allow for each one to
begin carving their own individual plan for the future.

Student Support – With seminars, brochures and the invaluable opportunity to engage with
our exhibitors, pupils receive a very high level of help and attention to guide them through their
options.

Venue – By holding our events at sporting venues we provide a more exciting and inspirational
backdrop.

Options Guide – Attendees receive a guide written largely by current university students and
recent graduates. It is filled with important information which will help guide their decision
making.

Teachers and Coordinators – We listen. Your comments and suggestions will be taken on
board and implemented. You are supported by your assigned liaison manager – you’ll receive
regular updates and have the opportunity to get in touch whenever you need to. We also
ensure that teachers are looked after on the day by providing them with their own area with
complimentary tea/ coffee, as well as a lunch voucher.
