For New Residential Students Living In University Owned Accommodation:

Join us for arrivals weekend, which falls on Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 September. If you’ve secured University-owned accommodation in Chester, we’re excited to welcome you with open arms to your new home.

Here’s what to expect:

• Key Collection: You’ll have the chance to pick up your keys, ensuring a smooth transition into your new home.

• Registration: Registration is mandatory for all new students. If you have applied for student finance, we need to confirm your attendance, and once this is done you normally receive your maintenance money within 5 working days.  Non-residential students can register their attendance during Welcome Week.  More information can be found here.

• Student ID Card: Don’t forget to collect your Student ID card.

Arrival Time Slot: Keep an eye on your inbox for an email from our Accommodation Team. They will provide all the details on how to book your preferred arrival time slot, ensuring minimal wait times.

For further information and helpful resources, don’t hesitate to explore the Pre-Arrival Student Site.
