Mature students are accepted all the time. Indeed Cambridge has colleges specifically for 21+ students. Although mature students can apply to any college.

And Oxford: https://www.ox.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/why-oxford/support-and-wellbeing/mature-students?wssl=1

You seem fairly knowledgeable about this. My case a bit different than most applicants.I've lived in this country for 3 years now and have qualifications from Holland and only 4 GCSEs- getting ABBB and ABC at As. But my Predicted Grades are A*AA. What are my chances?

Let's leave it for the actual Oxbridge Admissions folks to answer on Tuesday (i.e. the purpose of this subforum :wink: )

Which course are you interested in?

(However, for most courses GCSEs don't much matter...)

Just tagging in @LMH OXFORD @Murray Edwards Admissions
@Doonesbury has given some good advice on this already but , yes, both Oxford and Cambridge admit mature students and are committed to providing opportunities to students who may have had a non-traditional/interrupted path to university and who can demonstrate ability, potential and commitment to their studies.
