I phoned a lecturer during Clearing week and she described the course to me in more detail and encouraged me to try it. I'm very glad I did. I had wanted to attend Bangor but wasn't sure if I was up to it with being a carer and having teenage children. Studying as a mature student has been challenging but extremely rewarding, I have gained a lot of confidence from the last three years.
Not only was I offered a place to study the course I wanted to but the staff kept in contact throughout the process to keep me updated and also ensure I was okay. I was also offered a campus tour, after accepting my place, which also helped as it meant I was not going into my studies without even knowing the University.
