Mature student experience at uni?

So I’ll be 22 when I go to uni next year, and I was wondering if I can still have the full uni experience? How did everyone find joining societies, partying etc?

Hi @Lauren 28119

Rest assured, you can absolutely have the full uni experience, even if you’re starting at 22.🤗.
You won't be the only one in your course, many students begin university after 19. Also, societies will have students from both undergraduate and postgraduate departments, meaning that you will find people from different ages and many will be in the same boat as you.
