Freshers Fairs 2025 are nearly here

FRESHERS Fairs are set to take over Wiltshire College & University Centre from Monday 8 September, bringing students a packed week of activities, support and fun.

Whether you’re brand new to the College or returning for another year, the Freshers Fairs are your chance to settle in, meet new people and discover everything on offer across our campuses.

What to expect

The Freshers Fairs are about more than just fun – they’re a chance to explore support services, connect with local organisations, and make the most of college life.

Meet external agencies – including the Police & Fire Service, Public Health, Sexual Health, Mental Health, Safe Drive Team, gyms, carers support, sexual assault referral centre (SARC), Connect, Macmillan, and the Army (Salisbury campus only).

Connect with our College teams – from the Library and Learning Support to Student Engagement Officers, Wellbeing, Safeguarding and Careers & Work Experience.

Have fun with games & activities – try your hand at the gladiator duel, sumo suits, football penalty shoot-out, basketball, bungee run or giant buzzer game, thanks to Sky’s The Limit Entertainment.
