Parents Invited to Hear about The University of Aberdeen

The University of Aberdeen is holding a parents’ evening in Edinburgh on Thursday, March 16th from 7:00 – 9:00 pm in the City Chambers. This is an opportunity for parents of prospective students to ask questions, meet members of the staff, and to find out about the University of Aberdeen and student life in Aberdeen.

Over 900 parents attended last year’s series of parents’ evenings, which will be held again this year in Aberdeen, Glasgow, Perth, Dundee, and Inverness as well as Edinburgh. These evenings were very well received and have become an annual event. Hosted by senior academic staff, parents hear about finance, accommodation, the admissions process, general welfare issues, and from students who share their own experiences of the University.

Director of Student Recruitment & Admissions Services, Lori Manders said: “Parents often want information that is different from what the average 17 or 18 year old may request. Research from the Institute of Employment Studies shows that parents are influential in the decision-making process. Many parents visit the University with their sons and daughters on Open Days and call for advice. We delighted to extend our service to those parents who perhaps were not able to visit us, through this series of events across Scotland.”

The host for the evening on Thursday, March 16th will be Professor Dominic Houlihan, the Vice Principal and Dean of the Faculty of Science and Engineering.
