Generally this is someone aged 21 or above who is applying to study an undergraduate degree at university
When I did my access course in 2008, I was 18 and it was considered a course for mature students and at that time I understood it to mean older students that weren't in their first year or two after finishing school. I think now they have changed access courses so they are for over 19s, but I agree with reply above, potentially someone over 21 at uni.
