Who's looking forward to starting Uni?

lrr_2

Finally its in black and white - Im officially staring uni next month and really looking forward to it! Never in a million years did I ever think I would go to uni (mature student). Hated school! Worked since I left school. But when I was made redundant went to college for 2 years and now here I am.

Anyone else looking forward to it?

Hi
I am due to go back to uni as a third year student (mature) and I love it I cannot wait to get back although this will be my last year.
Advice to you do everything you can savour the moment and let nothing pass you by as it goes so quick and it really is one of the best times I have ever had.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do xx:j

I am going back for my last year and I have loved every moment of it. It is not easy, especially if you have children, but as long as you do the work you will have no problems. Good luck!

I am a single parent, been divorced, worked shifts, made redundant - so this should be a piece of cake! NOT! My daughter is now going into primary 7 so shouldnt be too bad hopefully! Never one to shy away from a challenge!

I'm cacking myself waiting for the 20th to get my A Level results. I honestly have no idea what I've got, but I am desperately hoping I got high enough grades to get into uni - I'm up the creek if I haven't!

Is clearing possibly an option? You might be worrying over nothing, I was the same worrying and got an A!

Good luck!

Yeah, I'm just scared that if I have to go through clearing, I will end up somewhere I don't like, and/or doing something that isn't really what I want to do. But hey, I'll just have to sit tight and wait and see! Cheers

I'm really looking forward to uni as well. I'm starting second year after transferring from another uni.. so its like being the new girl in the class! Scary! I really want to get all my modules details so I can start reading!

Never thought I'd say that!

I'll second this :j Its had its up and downs and im not too impressed with some of the tutors we've had but I cant wait to get back - even if its just to finish the darn thing :rotfl:

I dont go back till October, wish it was sooner to get cracking on with the dissertation.

Most of me can't wait then the otherside of me is scared lol. I'm also a mature student wth two under 5's so I imagin it is going to be a hard slog! So worth it at the end though (hopefully!)

Mine are both under 5, you just need to have a good routine in place and make sure that uni work doesn't impact on quality time with the children.
