    Questions regarding Cambridge
    i'm a student who is thinking of applying Cambridge as a mature student and i've got a few questions while reading Cambridge University homepage..

    Any replies would be helpful


    Two Questions:

    1. In the homepage it says that there are two round: first round which is due at October 15th and second round which is due at March 1st.

    Does that mean we can apply both for the first round and second round or we should apply first round or second round?



    2. i will be aged 21 by the year i hope to join the University(2013), however, not without any higher education before the year as i will be joining German University

    in 2012. In that case, can i still be classified as a mature student? or should i only apply as a formal application?

    Yes you will still be classified as a mature student, no matter what your former educational experience is.
