These obligations are set out in our Higher Education Student Contract. Before you accept an offer of a place at University Centre Reaseheath, it is important that you read these contract conditions.
Applications for full-time Degrees and Foundation Degrees are made through UCAS www.ucas.com. Applications for all other full-time courses such as Access to HE and Level 4 Diplomas should be made directly to Reaseheath via the online application form.
Applications should be submitted to UCAS between 1 September and 15 January of the year prior to entry to the programme. Once you have applied through UCAS, your details will be sent from UCAS to us. If your application is successful you will receive either a conditional or an unconditional offer from us. You will then be invited to attend an interview or an applicant visit day where you have the opportunity to view the campus, facilities and speak to staff.
If you have missed the applications deadline, you may still be able to apply for a course using the ‘Clearing’ system or ‘UCAS Extra’. Applications received at UCAS after the deadline, up until 30 June, will only be considered if we still have vacancies for the course you have selected. Any applications made after this date will enter Clearing.
Reaseheath’s Higher Education courses are listed on UCAS. Individual course codes can be found on each course page of this website and in the Undergraduate Prospectus. The UCAS institution code for University of Chester validated courses is CHSTR C55.
Applications for part-time courses validated by the University of Chester should be made directly to University Centre Reaseheath. When you have chosen your course, complete our online Part-Time Application Form. Your application will then be reviewed by our admissions team and you may be contacted for further information by the Course Manager and possibly invited for interview.
Mature students and those with extensive relevant industrial experience are encouraged to apply. Applications are considered individually and admission may be based on criteria other than the qualifications listed. Potential applicants who believe they fall into this category are advised to contact the College to discuss their eligibility. If you have been away from study for a while or you’ve decided to change career – and you’re considering either full or part-time study, our specialist Access to HE Diploma offers an excellent introduction to studying land-based subjects.
