I took part in a Masters Taster Afternoon in which I was able to visit my supervisor to get a better idea of what my course had to offer. At that point, I had already received an unconditional offer, but was considering two or three other schools as well. I was working full-time, and so I was unable to come to my course open day, but really got a feel for what the atmosphere would be like at York from this Taster event.

I attended the Masters Taster event at the University which I would definitely recommend attending as all my questions were answered that day from funding to course requirements. I spoke to a student ambassador from the Department of Health Sciences who was very patient with me even though I had so many questions to ask. It was very important for me as a single-parent living some distance away to get all the right information before deciding if the Masters was a viable option.
