As part of the Pop-Up consulate, the British Council will be hosting an EducationUK Open House in the afternoon of Wednesday 5 March, from 3 – 6pm.

The EducationUK Open House will include presentations on higher education in the UK, a fair component in which participating institutions can host tables and present information to attendees, and a networking reception.

Students, teachers and administrators from local high schools, private schools, universities and colleges will be invited to attend the Open House.  The Pop-Up Consulate will also be promoted via local media.

• Host a table providing information on your programmes.
• Propose a short talk on an aspect of higher education in the UK (presentations will be selected to provide a range of topics and institutions).
• Participate in the networking reception.
• The cost for participation is £450 + vat.

**If you are not able to attend, you are invited to provide a few prospectuses for display at the EducationUK Open House and have contact details collected on your behalf.  The cost for this is £100 + vat.
