Any mature students (21+) on this site?
I am 24 years old and I feel very nervous attending university at my age although I know I am not very old. Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.

I went back in my 30's and I was far from oldest. It's great being a mature student imo, no teen angst getting in the way and you can talk with staff closer to equals which can help a lot.
