It can be a daunting experience for anyone starting university for the first time. As someone who decided to attend after a few years out of education, I found it challenging to balance my personal life with studying. To combat this affecting my mental health, I have found ways to make sure I’m looking after myself whilst still succeeding academically. Here are my tips for looking after your mental health as a mature student at university.
In this blog, I'll discuss my personal experience and why I opted to pursue postgraduate studies in an area that interests me, at the University of Essex, from the discovery of my genuine love during my undergraduate years to the supportive atmosphere and practical benefits afforded by the institution.
