Write to the adcom that you are interested to attend a class. They will try to accommodate your request. It need not be a open day.

Every school has a coffee or a nearby pub. You can meet the current students there. You don't need to have any permission to meet them. Good luck!

Thanks interviewbay...
+1!

I'm not sure if they'll allow me to attend classes since I won't be making it on an Open Day. Typically, what will I be missing if I go on a non open day?
I shot the same question to the adcom, and I was told that they couldn't guarantee that I'd even be able to meet current students!!! :shock:

Thanks!
I've written to both the schools.
Hope they get back soon. I have tonnes of work to do including getting the visas sorted out. :|

Phew! Making arrangements for a campus visit isn't as cozy as I had thought! :shock: Can somebody help me out with these queries?
>> I'm looking for super quick processing of my UK visa from India. Is hiring an agent (Thomas Cook maybe?) a good idea?
>> Is travel insurance a must in the UK? How to go about eets?
>> what's the best way to carry local currency? Get myself some Thomas Cook/AMEX travelers cheques or do I purchase some GBP forex from India itself? Any other ideas?
>> Both schools (Ox/bridge) are taking time to respond to my request for campus visit. I'm guessing it's because of the peak application season. If I send them a gentle reminder to take a look at my case, will it be perceived negatively by the schools? [I'm really hoping for an answer from them soon, because I can't go forward with my visa processing without a letter of invitation from them :cry: ]

Cheers!
