the "mature" Cambridge applicants thread (2017 entry)

Hi all,



I've only seen one other "mature" applicant on TSR, but I'm sure we're out there!

So, what are you all applying for? Why now? What college have you gone for?


I'm applying for English at Wolfson.

hey! we definitely are out there!

applied for medicine, only applying now due to occurrences in my personal life but couldn't be more excited!

Jesus College applicant! I was scared to apply to a mature college because we'll be competing against graduates too, right?

I don't think that matters, though.

Btw, how old are you?
