Mature Students campaign
Welcome to the NUS Mature Students Campaign
The NUS Mature Students Campaign is one of NUS’ youngest campaigns. The campaign exists to defend and extend the right of mature students in both Further and Higher Education, and to tackle the barriers and stigmas that mature students face in education.
The work of the campaign is lead and guided by the Mature Students National Committee (MSNC), democratically elected at our annual mature students conference.
