Unconditional Offers
If your offer is unconditional, you need to tell us whether you firmly accept the offer via the Acceptance of Offer Form sent with your offer letter. Simply fill the form in to confirm that you are planning to take up your place at the University of Chester, and send it to the International Office by July 31st, together with a cheque or money order for £2000. If you wish to pay by credit card, then you may contact the Finance Office (details can be found on the Methods of Payment form sent with your offer letter). This will secure your place.
Conditional Offers
If your offer is conditional, you will need to wait until you have fulfilled the condition(s) given in the letter; then write and let us know, by sending us the documentary proof with the Acceptance of Offer Form sent with your offer letter, and a cheque for £2000. Conditions are included in your offer letter.Until we receive confirmation from you that the conditions have been met, we will not be able to confirm your place with us or to send you an 'unconditional' offer letter. You will need to send proof that you have met the conditions (a degree or high school transcript or an IELTS certificate, for instance).
It is your responsibility to make sure that we know when you have fulfilled the conditions. It is sensible to let us know as soon as you can, so that you can be assured of a firm acceptance in good time to make your arrival preparations.
The acceptance deposit of £2000 is charged so that we can be sure that, if you accept a place, you intend to come and study at Chester. Deposits can be refunded in exceptional circumstances and each case will be treated on an individual basis. You will be asked to produce evidence: e.g. Visa refusal letter, or other necessary documents to prove your case, and we will refund your deposit. Please note: £150 of your tuition fee deposit will be non-refundable.This is to cover any necessary administration costs related to your application. When you enrol with us, the £2000 will be deducted from your tuition fee invoice.
