Hello applicants
Welcome to your Applicants webpage!
Over the next few months we'll be sharing a range of different events and resources for you to attend and check out before you join us in September.
This will include our Study Skills and Preparing for Your Course sessions, which you can read more about below. Make sure to bookmark this page and check back regularly, and keep an eye on your emails.
What is coming up over the summer?
Over the summer we'll be hosting a number of online sessions to help you get more familiar with Marjon, what it's like studying here, and the support we can offer.
This will start with a series of Study Skills sessions, aimed at both undergraduate and postgraduate learners. The links to those sessions will be posted on this page and also sent to you by email.
These sessions will be led by our library team and will be confirmed closer to the time.
How can I find out more about my course?
You will be invited to attend Preparing for Your Course online sessions, also taking place over the summer. These will introduce you to your course team, your first year modules, and others on your course.
These sessions will introduce you to Canvas, where you'll be able to find out more about your course and suggested reading.
You'll be invited to these sessions via email, and all of the joining links will be posted on this page, so keep it bookmarked!
What happens next?
If you have any questions about these sessions, please get in touch - email visitus@marjon.ac.uk and we'll be happy to help.
If you have any questions about your application, or want to confirm your place, check out UCAS or email our Admissions team - admissions@marjon.ac.uk.
When you have confirmed your place at Marjon by going 'Firm' on UCAS, you can apply for your Marjon accommodation.
