Other universities definitely do access courses, one of my friends did one at Stirling uni before going on to do their degree there, so you might well have options that can suit a longer residence.

You can do a foundation year and a 4 year course in scotland if you can find a university that offers them. You've got no prior higher qualifications so you should be eligible for the same finance any 18 year old gets. Doing so in somewhere up north is also an option and gets you a degree faster - newcastle, liverpool, lancaster are all options. What subjects you thinking of studying? B. Pretty much any university - including some quite good russel groups - will probably take you. Mature students are seen as more reliable and hardworking that 18 year olds regardless of grades, and a slight downtick in 18 year old population plus pressures for uni's to get as many students as possible for that sweet 9k tuition means it'll be easier than you think. UCAS deadline is next week though, and might be a bit tricker to fill out as a solo mature student.

CoolCab posted:kinda wanna gently caress around and go to uni. if I apply for Scotland I can't do a foundation year, is that right? this stuff is very confusing and I don't know if it's worth trying and its anxiety provoking Been a bit since I looked but I know Strathclyde & Aberdeen did straight up foundation years. Your other option is doing a SWAP course for a year (Scottish Wider Access Programme) at a college & then going to uni. Plus I know that Glasgow Uni & Edinburgh Uni both had their own Access courses aimed at mature students wanting to get into those unis. Theoretically they could be used for a different uni but you'd need to speak to admissions departments etc, they are designed to get you into that university.

Hello thread, I believe some of you are hobbyist home brewers (sadly the dankest of home brewers is no longer with us), and I was wondering if anyone knows what legal hoops you have to jump through to get your homemade booze sold in a licensed pub? Also is there a homebrewing thread somewhere on the forum? I remember there being one but can't seem to find it. Cheers all.

In my experience most receptionists will direct you to the website so maybe peruse that first and make a list of questions that the website doesn't answer.

Depends on the uni but if you apply through UCAS it's a standard length, won't be more than a page. If I can find my PS from a couple years ago i can send it to you, i was applying to RCS as a mature student and it got me through to the auditions.

Some unis may have a specialist number for mature students (not always obvious on web site) so have a dig for that or phone UG admissions and ask if they have a specialist team. Personal statements are 4000 characters/ 47 lines. I used to work in admissions and would be happy to proof read if that would be helpful

For beer you always have to register, no matter where in the UK, but there's a Small Breweries' Relief scheme that makes paying duty easier and can mean a reduced rate. Once the duty is paid (this is at point of production, not sale) it's a product like any other, and you show up and say "I made some beer, do you want to buy it?" Wine you always pay full duty per bottle. Same for spirits but you also need a rectifier's licence and a bunch of controls on who can access the still equipment.

It's about a page of "here's why i want to study subject X and why I've decided to educate myself now". Usually they aren't too important, but for a mature student I'd guess it's more important - they aren't vital to get right though and there's not standards structures or anything.

The actual rates should yeah, but I'm not sure if Scotland has the de minimis exception for cider or not. I suppose that's by the by if you're not making cider though  e: looked it up and: 3.1 Do I need to register Yes, if: you make or propose to make cider for sale your total production – including cider for your own consumption – in any rolling period of 12 consecutive months either exceeds 70 hectolitres (7000 litres), or is likely to do so You must also advise us if you render cider sparkling (see section 5), unless you intend to carry out this process in an Excise warehouse. You may produce cider and render cider sparkling on the same registered premises. So you can make up to 7,000L of kerosene jugs of flat cider anywhere in the UK you want and it's just a food product.
