FTE AFOP: Open Day
Good morning folks.
Visiting FTE shortly for an Open Day.
I understand that there is no published dress code and that it is an open day, as opposed to interview, but I wondered whether I ought to err on the side of smart or business casual style attire?
Appreciate that I could ask this question directly of FTE but thought this thread might help others too.
Thank you.

Is it just an visit with parents/ partners/ aunties/ various others all in attendance or is there some sort of assessment there?
If it's the former, I would suggest business casual/ semi-formal. Open shirt with relatively formal trousers and shoes for example.
If there's an assessment/ interview, I'd go a bit more formal with a suit and tie.
Allert is very right though. It's always better to go more formal than less. It's pretty easy to slip off a tie and jacket if overdressed. It's a bit more difficult to dress up if you're in shorts and a t-shirt.
