3 Steps to Open Campus

[1] Find the university you want to go to!

Let’s search by university name and convenient schedule! During the summer holidays, there may be multiple universities holding open campuses in one day. But don’t worry! In Kyoto, the distance between university campuses is close, so it is possible to visit multiple campuses! If you’re not sure, go there first and see for yourself.

[2] Find out about the university you’re going to!

Once you have decided which university to go to, the first thing to do is to research the university. Each university has a full range of entrance examination information sites, so be sure to check them out! In addition to the site, there are many universities that accept requests for materials, so it may be a good idea to order them.

[3] Check your belongings and clothes!

My first visit to a university campus. What should I bring to the Open Campus? What kind of clothes should I wear? Let’s check it out!

□ Writing utensils and notepads

Write down what you heard from the university so you don’t miss it! It’s also important to check the notes and look back on them when you get home! Writing utensils and notepads are a must.

□ A bag that can hold A4 size materials

Universities often distribute materials, so bring a bag that holds A4 size materials.

□ Clothing

It doesn’t matter if you wear a uniform or plain clothes. However, make sure you choose appropriate clothing that will not cause discomfort to the university. Also, since you will be walking around the campus a lot, choose shoes that you are familiar with.

□ Heat stroke prevention goods

Open campuses are often held during the summer vacation, when it is easy for Mr./Ms. high school students to participate. When you are touring the campus, you will be exposed to a lot of sunlight, so it is essential to take measures against heat stroke in the hot summer. Bring a hat and drinking water. In addition, in recent years, there are hot days until around October, so complacency is a great enemy.

□ Map & Contacts

Make a note of the map and contact information in case you get lost on the day or are likely to be late for your booked class. If you are a university in Kyoto City, we recommend using the Kyoto walking map of “Kyoto Sightseeing Navi”!
