The go-to place in Essex for impartial information about pathways to further and higher education. Work with us to raise your students’ aspirations and promote
their interest in the possibilities of degree level study. Together we can empower students and their families to make informed choices about their educational journey.

We’re part of the Office for Students’ Uni Connect programme, based across Essex at both University of Essex and ARU campuses. We’re one of
29 national partnerships that bring together schools and colleges with universities and other local partners to offer activities, advice and information on the benefits and realities of going to university or college. We help students to explore the full range of routes into and through higher education and the world of work.

By 2020 we’d reached more than 75,000 students across Essex through a wide range of activities – from university taster days to mentoring, and study skills workshops to aspirational careers programmes.  We also offer bespoke projects working with underrepresented students in HE, including care experienced students, students with disabilities and students from military families.

Visit www.makehappen.org for a full events programme and share our useful basic guides covering everything from tips on mock interviews to the facts on student finance. Post-16 students and parents/carers can also ‘chat to us’, qualified IAG staff and current uni students via our secure online platform.
