Services for Prospective Mature Students
Mature Student Induction
Mature Student Induction is held just before your first year starts in September. It is a way of welcoming you to the university and introducing you to fellow mature students. Staff from around the university are involved in providing information and answering questions. You will gain further insight into the experience of being a student at Cardiff University including the study resources and facilities available to you.

Open Days
The University Open Day takes place in the spring term. It is an opportunity to visit Academic Schools, meet academic and support staff and generally find out about the university. More information see www.cardiff.ac.uk/for/prospective/ug/opendays/
On the morning of the Open Day the Centre for Lifelong Learning runs a session focusing on the needs of mature students. As well as information specific to mature applicants, you will have an opportunity to meet current mature students, other applicants and find out about the mature students society.
Many Academic Schools run supplementary information days which can be a useful source of information and reassurance particularly for mature applicants.
