    Hi,

    I'm looking to go back to college next year as a Mature Student, I'm 22 now and will be 23 september next year..

    I have been working for the last 2 years since I finished a level 6 In Software Engineering and networking and I am still working to this day on absolutely awful wages that wouldn't put me in any postition to pay for college fees ( 18500 per annum )

    So Really my main question is if I work for the next year and apply to become a mature student, What are my options finance wise?, Do I have a chance of my yearly fees being paid for me? Will I be eligible for a grant?

    Thanks for reading!

    You can't be considered a mature student until 2015 because you have to be 23 in January

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
