Applicant Days

You may have already attended an Open Day prior to making your application. Applicant Days are designed to help you with your decision on whether to make the University of Chester your Firm or Insurance choice, by offering a tailored event with more information about your course and University Facilities.

We recommend that you wait until you have received an offer before booking your Applicant Day, to ensure you see the facilities at the campus location that is relevant to you.

If you have not yet applied, or if you have received an offer but our booking system doesn't bring up any dates for your course(s), please contact us by calling 01244 512800 or emailing visitus@chester.ac.uk, so we can advise you on your best options for visiting us.

We have different dates depending on what subject(s) you have been offered a place for. By inputting your subject (or both subjects if you have applied for a combined degree), you will be directed to a list of relevant dates from which you can choose when to attend.

If you have applied for a combined degree, you will be able to attend sessions for both of your subjects. Simply enter your degree title into the booking form and you will be directed to a list of Applicant Day dates to choose from. You do not need to make two separate bookings.

If you are invited to attend an Applicant Day you may be able to claim up to £100 for yourself and one guest's travel costs. Criteria includes being eligible for free school meals/pupil premium; being a ‘Looked After Child’/have been in local authority care or are a young carer yourself.
