Adult Learners

Thinking of pursuing a university education?

Whether university is a definite goal for you or a distant dream, the first thing you should know is that it's never too late. Having said this, we realise that making the decision to apply to university to study for a degree, HNC or HND is a big step.  

With this in mind we know you'll have a lot of questions. The first place to look is in our frequently asked questions| section, which answers general queries about university e.g. financial support available, courses you can study, and much more.  

In this section you will find answers to questions specific to the needs of mature students, as well as personal accounts from our mature students.
