Schoolgoers to get taste of campus life at UCC open day

SCHOOL students will get a taste of campus life when University College Cork holds its annual open day for schools next Saturday.

The event will attract around 5,000 students, parents and teachers from around the country and give them an idea what to expect from the courses being considered.

Although course choices are not due to be submitted to the Central Applications Office (CAO) until the end of January, most Leaving Certificate students are already weighing up their options.
