Summer’s on its way, COVID restrictions are easing, and oh yes – you need to check out your university choices! What better time to book a Campus Tour? At long last, we are able to open our doors and show you around in full – and we can’t wait to see you.
Experience it in the flesh
If you’ve applied or are thinking of applying for this September, you’ve hopefully had a good look through our website and maybe attended one or two virtual events. But, over a year since the first lockdown started, it’s likely that screen fatigue has truly set in. Now seize the opportunity to get out there and see things first hand! From 17th May, our tours will be including indoor areas as well as outdoor, in line with the Government's easing of restrictions. You’ve researched the facts – now you can hopefully get all the feels too.
Meet current students
Our campus tours are led by current students who will be happy to chat to you and answer your questions during the tour. Tours will be in very small groups (it will just be you and potentially one other prospective student, plus an accompanying guest each). This makes the experience truly personal – so once you’ve grabbed your free tea or coffee, make the most of your opportunity to get the lowdown on student life.
Chloe, an offer holder who got in touch about her recent experience on a Campus Tour, found this opportunity really useful:
“I found the small group size relaxing as I was able to ask so many questions to which all were answered. Abi who walked me around the campus shared her own experiences which was reassuring to listen to. You could hear from her stories that she really enjoyed what had become her 'home' and she is really going to miss it. I love how there are so many activities for me to get involved in if I want to, such as the women’s football club, gym activities and so many more!”
View accommodation
We’re planning to show you around some examples of our accommodation as part of the tour, so you can see first-hand the different options we have available.
Explore the area
Why not make a day of it and take the opportunity to explore the area you could be calling home for the next few years? Chester, Shrewsbury and Warrington all have loads to offer, including shops, bars, cafes and lots of lovely places to take a stroll.
Book your place!
Our Campus Tour booking page has lots of information about all the COVID-secure measures we’re putting in place to ensure you have a safe and enjoyable visit. You can also find out about our Visit Us Travel Bursary, which reimburses travel costs for applicants who meet the eligibility criteria.
If you have any questions about the tours, visit our website or email visitus@chester.ac.uk. We look forward to seeing you soon!
