You can also talk to our current students using our UniBuddy system: Just follow the link, search for students in history or one of our joint or combined honours programmes and ask them a question.
Pre-Application Open Days
Pre-application Open Days are the best way for you to find out about our teaching excellence, explore our award winning facilities, experience our distinctive college communities, and discover the range of support services we offer to our students.

Post-Offer Visit Days
Our Post-offer Visit Days are an opportunity for those holding an offer with Durham University to sample their chosen course through live sample seminars, view and engage with their allocated college community, and get an insight into student life. The events will hopefully enable you to make an informed choice about your next steps in your application journey.
