Sheffield Hallam Uni 2016 Entry

Original post by MrsM81

Thank you so much for the reply. That sound great for placements, will hopefully mean I still get to see my babies 😊
Would you say there are many mature students? I am 35 and nervous I'll be the only one my age! Thanks

Hii MrsM81!!

Ah yes its important to keep that work-life balance when studying and during placement :h:

!! Our course is great because there is a broad range of ages. We have some students that come straight from school/college but there are also lots of students who have come back to study who are more mature students. I love the fact that we have such a varied course in terms of ages and backgrounds - I think we learn a lot from each other. Lots of people in my year also have children and young families so this will probably be the case for your year too. Again its great as we all have different life experiences to bring to the table! I hope you are really looking forward to starting the course and if you have any more questions please get in touch!

If anyone is interested here is a group i found for us all on Facebook. Everyone is posting their Halls and Course onto there and finding others on their course. Just follow the link and join up it was easy :smile:

I found 4 people on my course so it was definitely worth posting into :biggrin:

Hello, any postgraduates studying primary education?

Sweet

hi, I have selected Sheffield Hallam at my firm choice but I'm not 100% sure I'm going to get the grades, I think I'm going to be off by like 10 points! do any of you guys know how strict they are on entry requirements??

hi, i think it depends on how popular your course is but most uni's are okay if you're a tiny bit off as they need people to fill up the course!

Hey Lucy,

icanseethemoon is right, it depends on your course, how many offers have been made and how many people have reached the conditions of their offer. Unless we have given an unconditional offer, we can't guarantee places to anyone until results day so it's just a waiting game I'm afraid. If you have any specific questions around entry requirements, you can speak to our Admissions team on 0114 225 5555 and they should be able to assist you.

Alternatively, have a think about whether you'd still want to go to uni if you don't get the grades as you could find a course through clearing. We'll have information on our website soon, so keep your eyes peeled.

Thanks,
Laura
