SUMMARY:Clearing events at the University of Chester 
DESCRIPTION:Clearing opens at the University of Chester\nClearing has offic
 ially opened at the University of Chester offering interested applicants t
 he opportunity to discuss their options for studying in the 2024/2025 acad
 emic year and you can visit the Time Square campus on the following dates:
 \n\n 	Saturday 17th August (11am – 1pm – registering at Time Square)\n
  	Thurs 22nd Aug (11am – 1pm – registering at Time Square)\n 	Wed 28th
  Aug (11am – 1pm – registering at Time Square)\n 	Thurs 5th September 
 (11am – 1pm – registering at Time Square)\n\nMost of the action around
  Clearing happens on A-level results day (15 August). However\, Clearing i
 s open for more than three months\, giving prospective students time to fi
 nd the right university and course to suit them. This year\, Clearing is n
 ow open until October 21.\n\nThe Clearing system is used by UCAS (Universi
 ties and Colleges Admissions Service) and UK universities at the end of th
 e academic year to fill courses with available space. Clearing is now bein
 g used by more and more prospective students as it provides greater choice
  and flexibility.\n\nRic Bengree\, Director of Marketing\, Recruitment and
  Admissions at the University of Chester\, explains how it works. He said:
  “Clearing is for those who have just completed their A Levels and/or BT
 EC qualifications but have changed their minds about what they’d like to
  study\, or achieved higher grades than expected\, or didn’t meet their 
 firm or insurance offer requirements. It’s important to know that even i
 f you don’t meet your firm or insurance offer requirements\, it doesn’
 t automatically mean you enter Clearing. Make sure you check the UCAS Hub 
 on results day\; you may find that you’ve still been given a place\, or 
 that a decision has not been made yet. If that’s the case\, we recommend
  you give that university a call.\n\n“You can also apply through Clearin
 g if you’re applying after June 30\, or if you haven’t accepted any of
 fers yet. People who have been out of education for a while and are ready 
 to begin a new career or just pursue something they’re passionate about 
 can also use Clearing.”\n\nHe added: “Clearing is for prospective stud
 ents in a range of different circumstances and it’s a brilliant opportun
 ity to find the perfect university and course for you. There are many univ
 ersities to choose from and a wide selection of courses\; look at our A-Z 
 Clearing Course Listing to find a course you’re passionate about. At the
  University of Chester\, we’re a community so studying with us will feel
  like home away from home – it won’t take you long to feel connected h
 ere.”\n\nDuring the Clearing period the phone lines at the University of
  Chester are open from Monday to Thursday from 9am to 5.30pm\, and on a Fr
 iday from 9am to 4.30pm with extended hours on the following days: Thursda
 y\, August 15: 8am to 7pm\; Friday\, August 16: 8am to 6pm\; Saturday\, Au
 gust 17: 9am to 5pm\; Sunday\, August 18: 10am to 4pm and Saturday\, Augus
 t 24: 9am to 5pm.\n\nThe University is also holding visit days throughout 
 the summer to enable applicants to visit sites in Chester\, Birkenhead and
  Warrington. Undergraduate students who apply through Clearing are also gu
 aranteed University or partnership accommodation\, if the application is s
 ubmitted before August 31 2024.\n\nTo find out more about Clearing at the
