Hey @jennaa21 👋

Access courses are for mature students, so they usually only accept students above 21 years old. You may see a lot of posts about access courses and dental hygiene as a lot of the applicants for dental hygiene degrees are mature students who have some work experience but might have been out of education for a while. The access course is useful to get their UCAS points for applying to uni as it is a very competitive degree
