Real Talk is specifically designed for prospective mature-age students. For many people considering university later in life, the biggest barriers aren't choosing a course. They're balancing study with work and family commitments, understanding the financial commitment, and having the confidence to believe that university is achievable.
That's why Real Talk has been designed differently.
Through authentic conversations with mature-age students and graduates, live Q&A, and practical guidance, the series is designed to:
• Address the questions and hesitation that often come before course selection
• Provide practical, real-world advice from people who have successfully returned to study
• Build confidence and reassurance
• Offer a personalised next step through one-on-one study planning consultations
The series will be delivered across two sessions (with more in the works for early next year), each focusing on a key topic that addresses common barriers faced by people considering university later in life.
What Uni Really Costs – Tuesday 18 August, 6.00pm - 7.00pm
Flexible Study, Real Life – Thursday 27 August, 6.00pm - 7.00pm
