Part-time Mature Students

[TessOfTheDinnerbells]

So as a part-time very mature student, will we fit in or should I just wear sack-cloth and accept that I'll never be accepted by the younger Freshers?

Any experiences or tips to share on this?

I thought the same last year! You will fit in
Just fine. Just be yourself.
Except when you are at the beautiful young faces (even when they've been on the piss)when dragging your nackered self in.

I think everyone feels the same at first!

As long as you don't try too hard to fit in, you'll be fine. I studied at a university that had few mature students, but my old age wasn't a problem.
