If you are 21 or over at the commencement of your undergraduate studies at Lancaster University, then you are classed as a mature student, and these pages are for you.
Whether you want to explore a subject of interest, progress your career or change direction, returning to study as a mature student has many benefits.
At Lancaster, we value mature students’ wide range of life experiences and the skills each student brings to their degree. Maybe you are confident to speak in seminars due to your experience in work meetings, or you can consider different cultural perspectives in your projects after travelling, or you can manage competing deadlines efficiently with your parenting experience.
So, you have the advantages which maturity brings, but returning to study after a gap can be daunting.
Whether juggling caring responsibilities, living some distance from campus, or having concerns about fitting in, you can feel confident that you are supported at Lancaster at every stage, from pre-arrival to graduation and beyond.
These services below are dedicated to helping mature students get the most out of their university experience.
These services are available to all students at Lancaster but can particularly help mature students.
