Summer Schools

Summer Schools are great fun and are a wonderful opportunity to experience the potential for a whole new way of life!

Experience first hand the differences between school or college and university!

Taking part in one of our residential events will allow you to get the information you need in order to decide whether university is for you.

The University of Chester currently runs Summer Schools for young people from backgrounds where going to university is the exception rather than rule. You could, for example, live in an area where few young people go on to higher education, or you could have a disability or special educational need.

You will be able to live in student accommodation and work alongside our current students and university lecturers on practical projects related to courses that you could study at university.

Find out how a degree can help to influence your future employability, learn about the world of student finances and get tips on writing a successful application to university.
