I work for the University of Bristol as the Mature Student Recruitment Officer, and I wanted to put the word out there as widely as possible, it is NEVER too late to return to education.
About 5% of our undergraduate population are mature students, that's roughly 250 per year.
I am travelling around the country delivering talks on returning to higher education as a mature learner, and giving advice on how to start thinking about, whether you currently have the entry qualifications or not. You can book a place here for Newcastle, London, Manchester, or come talk to us at our Open Days.
So I'm here to answer questions, assuage anxiety and generally help out! We have lots of student parents who use our nursery or You can also contact me privately on [email protected].
