Going to college at an older age used to be unheard of, but with the incredible advancements in education and organization in recent years, it has become much more common. The oldest age you can officially go to college depends on the school and its admissions standards, but some universities are welcoming students of any age to gain higher education privileges. You can choose part-time courses or programs with flex-schedules that allow you to study from home or at your own speed. There are also programs available for older learners who want to discover something new or take their career in a different direction – sometimes universities even have special enrollment pathways for mature students.
