Modern universities have increased the opportunities for people from all walks of life to experience the transformative impact of higher education. Mature learners, people already in work, and all those who thought higher education was only for others have been able to unlock their potential and create new careers for themselves and new lives for their families. This diversity of approach and student profile is a key pillar of the modern university sector.
