Hi,
-LLB at UWE!
I applied at the end of the ucas extended deadline (22nd Jan) and am pleased to say that i have been accepted with an unconditional offer on 1st Feb. I honestly can't believe it as i was really just testing the water and hoping at best for an interview!
I'll be 28 by the end of this month, last year I decided I really want to study law and started exploring my options, including looking into an access course. I wanted to explore UWE as an option as its Law School has a good reputation and is fairly near my house (which i foolishly bought 2 years ago so am a little restricted by). I visited and came away feeling more confident and reassured about considering uni as a mature student. I've got rubbish a levels from yrs ago and wasn't interested in HE until recently.
I chatted to a tutor in the law school and she gave me the confidence to apply without pursuing an access course -which would have cost me nearly £2k and an extra year, so i'm really glad i went!
I am so pleased that it is a real possibility now and would like to encourage anyone considering applying or waiting for offers that there's every chance yet, since i seriously did not think i would have this opportunity a year ago!!!!
Good luck everyone.
Also, anyone else preparing to start the LLB or UWE, er, or both??!
