More older learners sign up for university amid drive to upskill during pandemic

A greater number of older applicants appear to be signing up to study at university as more people seek to improve their skills following the pandemic, according to higher education watchdog. The Office for Students (OfS), England’s universities watchdog, has said the significant increase in demand from mature learners may reflect signs of more adults looking to upskill due to Covid-19. Full-time undergraduate mature applicants from the UK, those who enter higher education aged 21 or over, rose by 24% to 96,390 this year, an extra 18,540 students, the analysis of Ucas figures show. It comes after Ucas revealed in February that the number of students aged 35 or over who have applied to study nursing has risen by 39% this year.
