Local universities attended as well as ones from around the country including Aberystwyth, Lancaster, Cardiff and the University of Arts, London.

Victoria Ditton, Careers Manager at Halesowen College, said: “The Autumn HE Fair is a really good opportunity for students to speak to university staff to help them make their final decisions about university choices.

“In addition to the exhibitors, a number of universities held personal statement surgeries so students could have their personal statement reviewed by university staff in preparation for submitting their UCAS application.

“We enjoyed working with all our university associates.”
