Head Start Express: One-day event
Event date
- 20 August 2026
Join a condensed version of our free immersive Head Start event to build your confidence and familiarise yourself with the University before your course begins.
What is Head Start Express?
If you can’t make one of our three-day Head Start events, we offer a condensed version of the programme in Head Start Express. The one-day event still offers lots of valuable information and support to prepare you for starting your degree.
The day is focused on information. If socialising and building connections is important to you, please attend one of our three-day Head Start events instead. Staff and current students will be on hand to answer questions too.
Our guidance will help you feel confident and academically ready for your degree. There will also be information on what you can get involved in alongside your studies.
Here's a taste of what you can do at Head Start, but there will be more to explore during the event:
- Get valuable study tips and advice about studying at degree level
- Talk to current students about what it's like to study at Kingston University
- Learn about our support services and other opportunities on offer at Kingston University
- Get advice about budgeting and finding part-time work
Who can attend?
You must be a Home student with a Firm offer for an undergraduate course at Kingston University, to take part in our free one-day Head Start Express event.
Dates to choose from
There will be one Head Start Express event in 2026. The event will take place on the 20 August.
It's made me very excited about starting university and I am confident I made the right choice.
