Hi @Char-G-H

Congratulations on your offer to study with us 😀

I'm sure another Creative Writing applicant will get in touch but we would also recommend joining our Offer Holder community group online so that you can meet other people before arriving. You should have received a link to join this in a couple of emails, however if you need us to send the link again just drop us a private message.

In the meantime if you have any questions about joining us just let us know!

Best wishes,
Becky

Hello Char-G-H,

Well done for receiving an offer to study creative and professional writing degree at Chester, I’m biased probably, but it’s a super university and the English department is fabulous, the tutors are all wonderful, I’m sure you too will love it!

Have you attended any of the Offer holder open days at Chester, yet? These days are a super way of meeting the department and university staff and you might also meet some of your future classmates too.

There is also an app, called UniBuddy where you can find current students on the course. Whilst these students have already started and won’t necessarily be in your classes, it will enable you to meet some students on your course.

Finally, closer to the start date, there is often the opportunity to join social media groups for your course, so this is another means of ‘meeting’ some of your classmates,

I hope this helps, and good luck with your uni journey,

Hello Azimmm,

If you received an offer from the University of Chester, I'm sure that you will soon hear about the Offer Holder Community online group too - there will be one for your subject too.

As I said in the previous reply, you could also think about attending an Offer Holder day, which is similar to an Open Day, but caters specifically for students with offers to join the university and therefore the information that is provided is more tailored for those students joining the University.

Don't forget about UniBuddy too - you can contact a current student through UniBuddy and there will be a student for your subject, I'm sure.

If you have any other questions, don't hesitate to ask!
