Hi, it was very nerve wrecking on top of the fact that I am a mature student as well. Felt like an oldie amongst the youngsters!
I didn't think I will be successful but they've offered me a place!

Hi! thank you and congrats on your offer :smile:

- I'm conflicted between choosing Winchester or Surrey as my first choice right now, but I might go with Winchester.

How about you?

Hi, I wish I had applied to Surrey as well but Winchester was my first choice but seems like it will be my only choice now as I have yet to have any offers from other universities. We might meet in the near future if we both decide on Winchester!

Hi all,
I have a place on the Nutrition and Dietetics course and was wandering who else will be starting this September. I’m returning to Uni as a mature student and really looking forward to it.

Hi, are you still studying at Winchester? I made Winchester as my firm choice. How’s the university life and the accommodation? What is the closest accommodation option?

Hey! Just finished my first year and i defo recommend winchester it’s a great uni and city. Uni life is good the student union has multiple nights a week as there is currently no club in winchester but the bars/pubs in town are great too (very expensive) but still good fun. all the lecturers i’ve had have been really friendly and helpful. Accommodation is pretty standard, i stayed in queens which is probably the closest to the main campus. Queens is a great accom and after seeing friends flats who stayed in burma / west downs queens is definitely the nicest looking and most spacious inside. i defo recommend going for an en suite room aswell. :smile:
