Mature Student Support
What is Mature Student Support?
Our mission is to support all mature students in UCC studying for full-time undergraduate degrees. We offer a wide range of support and initiatives designed for mature students to enhance your mature student experience. Our office is a place where mature students can come to be listened to and ask questions in an open, non-judgmental and empathetic environment. We advise mature students on how best to use the student services available within the University. We provide mature student-specific support responding to the diverse and unique needs of all our mature students.
What support can they provide?
