New futures for mature students
If you’re in your twenties or above and are thinking of studying at university,
this section is dedicated to you.
At the University of Bedfordshire,
more than 40 per cent of our students are over 25 and we
understand what a big decision it is to decide to study a degree.
We have students ranging in age from 18 to 78 and we provide a supportive and flexible environment for all our students.
These pages will hopefully answer some of the questions you have about studying with us. If you have further queries please contact Recruitment and Admissions on 01582 489286 or admission@beds.ac.uk
We hope to soon welcome you to our friendly, supportive and highly regarded institution.
UCAS defines a mature student as anyone 21 or over at the time their course starts. The University of Bedfordshire follows the UCAS guidelines.
