Mature Students
Starting University after a break in your studies can sometimes be very daunting. Mature students have particular needs and concerns - we understand this. We provide a free and confidential support service for all mature students (aged 21 or over on entry).
Once you arrive, you can access the following support:
- mature student orientation programme - takes place before the start of term to introduce you to other mature students (targeted at students over 25)
- student finance adviser - provides free, impartial advice to mature students including advice on childcare funding for UK students and childcare funding for international students.

It's always rewarding to work with mature students since they come to their studies with an appetite for learning that has been whetted over the years they have been out of education.
