At Bradford, we use the term 'adult learner' to describe anyone who is considering applying to university after a break from education, and/or is applying with non-traditional qualifications.

Our Adult Learner Advisers offer free, impartial advice to anyone considering applying to university. They can advise you on qualifications, course options, how to make your application stand out and answer any other questions you may have.
