Hear From Our Students

Lora Misikova
BSc Accounting and Finance
"I quickly made friends with other students and my housemates - we cook together and eat together, which is not only nice, but saves time and money! If I ever fancy my home food, I go to the Eastern European shops in Chester. What I like about my programme is that it offers the option to complete a 5 week work placement. I also like that it is accredited by the CIMA and ACCA."
Student Societies
Chester Students’ Union has a diverse range of student societies for you to join. Joining these societies are the perfect opportunity to meet new friends from your home country and get involved in lots of cultural activities and events they host throughout the year!
