About open houses & information sessions

Information sessions and open houses help people make a decision. Before applying to a degree, joining a bootcamp, hiring a firm or becoming a member of an organization, most people want to hear from the people involved, see the place or the platform, and ask their own questions. These events are built for that moment.

This category includes university information sessions run by admissions teams, program information sessions for courses, bootcamps, fellowships and training schemes, business introductions where a company presents its services to prospective clients, organization presentations for prospective members and partners, and virtual open houses that show a campus, studio, office or facility on camera. In-person open houses invite people to walk through a space and meet staff.

The typical session runs from a short overview to a more detailed walkthrough, with time for questions. Attendees range from prospective students and parents to career changers, job seekers, small business owners comparing providers and people curious about joining a group.

Register on the listing, and the address or online link is sent to registered attendees with reminder emails. Online sessions run on the organizer's own meeting tool. Check the time zone, the format and whether the organizer offers a recording.

Choosing an open house or information session

  • Pick sessions that match your stage: a general overview early on, a detailed program session when you are close to deciding.
  • Write down questions about cost, schedule, requirements and outcomes before you attend.
  • Check who is presenting, such as admissions staff, faculty, current students or company leaders.
  • For virtual open houses, see whether there is a live tour, breakout rooms or one-on-one time.
  • Confirm the time zone; sessions for international audiences are often repeated at different times.
  • Only count on a recording if the organizer offers one.

Questions about open houses & information sessions

What is the difference between an open house and an information session?

An open house usually lets you see a space, whether in person or on camera, and meet people informally. An information session is more structured, with a presentation and Q&A. Many events combine both.

Are information sessions usually free?

Many are, though the organizer decides. The listing shows whether registration is required and whether there is a fee.

How do I join a virtual information session?

Register on the listing, and the online link is sent to you as a registered attendee along with reminder emails.

Can I ask questions privately?

You can message the organizer through the listing before or after the session. Some sessions also include breakout or one-on-one time.
