University of Chester Review

Tips: Do proper research before joining any course and also about the job opportunities after you finish the course. Contact the alumni from your specific course and seek guidance and advice. I was happy with my course, and I am currently working in the healthcare industry here.

Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is very convenient and accessible to everyone. And it is very affordable too with student discounts. I would recommend using public transportation for the initial few years, as it can save you a lot of money. There are plenty of student discount offers too.

Dislikes (Part time work): There are very few on-campus job opportunities for part-time, but there are plenty of off-campus jobs too. One can manage academics and a job easily. The average payout is quite good, as students don't pay any tax, but we can only work for 20 hours a week. And it is more than enough to support your needs.

M.Sc in Biotechnology (Shrewsbury) - Batch of 2026

4.1

A Great Experience That I Will Always Remember

Tips: My biggest piece of advice before coming to Chester is to drop any fixed expectations and just take things as they come. Don't stress yourself out trying to force instant friendships during Welcome Week or planning out every single outcome—let your uni routine and social circle develop naturally. Take time to enjoy the small everyday moments, whether that's hanging out by the River Dee or exploring the city with housemates. Some of your absolute best memories here will come from just going with the flow.

Likes (Public transportation): I gave public transport a 5/5 because getting around Chester and traveling to nearby cities like Liverpool or Manchester is completely hassle-free. The main Exton Park campus and city sites like Wheeler are easily connected by local Stagecoach and Arriva buses, and Chester Railway Station is just a short walk or quick bus ride away. As a student, having frequent, affordable bus lines and easy train links right on your doorstep makes daily commuting and weekend trips super convenient.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): I gave permanent immigration a 3/5 because settling in the UK long-term after Chester is a tough, competitive process. While the 2-year Graduate Route visa buys you time to work after finishing your degree, transitioning to a sponsored Skilled Worker visa has gotten much harder with high salary thresholds and shifting Home Office rules. I’d love to stay in the UK permanently for the work culture and quality of life, but getting sponsorship from an employer to eventually hit that 5-year ILR threshold is far from guaranteed.

The kind of experience every international student has

Tips: I loved studying at this university. Every day was a learning experience. The people around were good, the lecturers were very supportive, and I made some really good friends. How I studied back home and what this university offered were completely different. Assignments are online, and the marking system is too. I was granted a scholarship and an IELTS waiver, as my English scores were above 80, which genuinely helped me save money on tuition fees and IELTS. There is a lot of support that is offered, such as well-being, education, and career. You could carry a lot from this university!

Likes (Indian Food): The university canteen has several options to pick from. There were several dishes from my home country, such as butter chicken and rice, and a lot to pick from. These gave me a touch of home. And the portion sizes were not a complaint. The prices are reasonable, and there is nothing to complain about.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): Though the UK job market is difficult, the support available to secure a sponsored job is really limited. From my personal experience, generic advice is provided, and CV tricks and tips are provided, but nothing specific to what I was pursuing. These are helpful, but I wish extra support or some kind of placement had been provided.

Medical Genetics MSc - Batch of 2025

3.7

Is a supportive university with a great learning in a safe student city.

Tips: Before joining, students should be prepared for an individual learning environment where time management is very important. I recommend students actively use universities' career services and start applying for internships and graduate opportunities early. Chester is a safe and beautiful city, making it comfortable for the international students to live in.

Likes (Safety): I felt very safe throughout my time studying in Chester. The campus had good security measures and CCTV, well-lit pathways, and support services for students. The city itself is peaceful, and I never had any major safety concerns while travelling or returning home, even in the evenings. People were generally friendly and helpful which made settling into a new country much easier.

Dislikes (Internships): The university provided some guidance through the career team and job portal; finding an internship or apprenticeship in my field still required individual effort. There are limited opportunities specifically related to genetics and laboratory science, and competition is high. I would have appreciated more industry partnerships, networking events and dedicated support for international students looking for relevant internships.

If education is your top priority, then choose this university.

Tips: A cultural shift is obviously present here, you need to mingle with all students of different ethnicities. I got a 2000-pound scholarship and it's better if we apply before enrolling here. I'm 100 per cent satisfied with the experience and curriculum of the course and post-graduation here in University but not with the country as there are a lot of flaws in the country, I often faced racism here.

Likes (Student Life): Library facilities and sports, gyms and everything in the University has provided a great place for spending time. As a postgraduate student, I really love it here every day there are games of different sports conducted and we need to register to participate. CSU in university is the union which organises all the events and other sports clubs that are there for every sport like cricket, hockey, football, swimming, callisthenics etc.

Dislikes (Part time work): There is very low availability of part-time jobs in the University, canteen and other event day jobs. The payment is the minimum wage in the UK. Part-time is manageable if you do under 15 hours more than that and we won't be able to focus on studies. There are job opportunity facilities here but they don't even give you a proper output of jobs so don't expect that here.

Tips: I had a different study experience here compared to India. The teaching methods they follow here are completely different to what I have experienced in India. The assignments we do also differ a lot. Apart from that, the university is just fine with a lot of international students. I don't go to any university events as I live far away but you might like the university as it is much more fun.
