Cardiff Met is an adult environment where students are normally age 18 or over. However on occasion, the University does admit students who are under the age of 18 at the start of their course.
The University recognises that anyone aged under 18 years is legally a child and that students under 18 have different needs in relation to the support and wellbeing. An under 18’s policy is in place which stipulates what is expected from student and the support that will be put in place.
Students are expected to assume adult levels of responsibility and it is important that applicants and their parents/guardians understand this before starting at Cardiff Met.
Undergraduate students aged 21 years and over in the year of entry are deemed as mature students. We welcome applicants from this group of students who will be given equal consideration.
