Do mature students have to have A-levels?
Mature students (aged 21 and over) are normally accepted on the basis of their GCSEs, O-levels, A-levels, AS levels, or Access qualifications or on the basis of other evidence of linguistic and academic ability. Sometimes mature students are asked to write an essay, or to take an informal language test. Mature students are welcome to visit the Department before applying if they would like to discuss individual needs and circumstances with a member of staff or meet a mature student currently on course. Mature students are just as welcome as younger students, and usually find the Department a congenial working environment.
