Both nursing masters start in September. Nothing at Exton Park or
Queen’s Park does, because those sites run October, January, February and May. If
you are planning the ordinary autumn arrival, this is the Chester list that fits it.
Every title, fee, length and start month was read off that course’s own page on 3 September 2026, and each prints “Wheeler, Chester” as its location. Art Therapy’s £19,000 is the whole course, not a year.
Fees by intake
The flat postgraduate rate does not hold on this site. Two courses run two years and are billed per year, and one runs two years for a single whole-course price.
September2 of 5 courses below₹19 lakh (£15,500)
October3 of 5 courses below₹19 lakh (£15,500)
January1 of 5 courses below₹19 lakh (£15,500)
Two courses cost double the headline
These run two years and the fee is charged per year:
Pre-Registration Adult Nursing MSc, £15,500 a year for 2 years, so £31,000 in total
Pre-registration Mental Health Nursing MSc, £15,500 a year for 2 years, so £31,000 in total
Art Therapy also runs two years, but Chester prices it as a whole course at
£19,000. Both are named exceptions on the international fees table rather than the
flat rate the rest of the university charges.
Two courses here are not open to you
Chester lists Advanced Clinical Practice MSc and Non-Medical Prescribing at
Wheeler. Both are part-time only, and neither prints an international fee. Part-time study
is not a Student visa route, so they are not on the list above.
Chester publishes an India page, and it sets one band for three-year degrees
and the same band for engineering and medical ones.
55% to 65%, depending on your background and the course.
There is a published route without IELTS.
The academic requirement
3-year Bachelor’s Degree with 55%-65%, depending on your academic history and the course you are applying for.
The nursing masters carry professional requirements on top, because they
register you to practise. Those are set by the regulator rather than by Chester.
The legal quarter, between the Crown Court and the Magistrates’ Court,
and a walk from the city centre.
The station is not close. Chester railway station is a 20-minute walk from Wheeler, so arriving with luggage is a bus
or a taxi. And there is no student parking:
Parking is not available for students at Wheeler
OpenStreetMap still carries this site under its old name, Riverside Campus,
which is worth knowing if you are looking it up on a map before you arrive.
Which locations deliver TAUGHT POSTGRADUATE courses: https://www.chester.ac.uk/about/our-locations/ names all ten sites but does not say which host taught masters. Bache Hall, Gateway House and The Hammond in particular may be administrative or partner sites rather than postgraduate teaching sites,
Intakes: February, May and October are the start months published on one course page (International Business MSc). A different course, Applied Artificial Intelligence MSc, publishes October 2026 only. Chester does not publish one page listing intake months across the portfolio,
Any-discipline masters: could not confirm one with explicit wording. International Business MSc states "Applicants will normally be expected to hold a degree with a minimum 2:2 honours, or equivalent" and names no subject, but it does not positively say a degree in any subject is accepted,
Coursework-only masters: not found. International Business MSc lists "Examinations" among its assessment methods. Applied Artificial Intelligence MSc does not publish a full assessment breakdown, so it could not be confirmed exam-free. Only two course pages were checked.
Duration '2 years taught': not published on the course pages loaded; the 2-year route at Chester is the placement/project year.
Approved agent list: not looked for; no agent-list page was loaded.
Postcodes for sites other than the main Parkgate Road, Chester CH1 4BJ address are not given on the locations page.
