Focusing on your transition to, and preparedness for, a University of Chester undergraduate degree.
The University of Chester welcomes students from all walks of life.
We offer four-year degrees that include a Foundation Year for those that may not have the full entry requirements to start on a three-year degree. This includes mature students (over 21) with no traditional qualifications but with a passion for learning, self-development, and with aspirations to follow a particular career. For mature students there is no minimum requirement. We review applications on a case-by-case basis and recruit through interview, primarily assessing individuals on their life experience, and their commitment to study.
We have over 65 undergraduate degrees that include a foundation year, and have assigned these to six foundation year programme routes, with a number of modules specific to the disciplines across our faculties.
Our Foundation Years are also an excellent option for students under 21 who haven’t met the requirements for their chosen course after sitting their A Levels. We require 72 UCAS points for entry.
