Clearing success story: Anglia Ruskin
Find out how Tom got a place through Clearing to study as a mature student with Anglia Ruskin University.
Tom's Clearing story
Tom talks about applying to Anglia Ruskin University through Clearing after several years out of education, and the support he received throughout the process.
Why did you enter Clearing?
I decided to get my degree after a few years out of education, but I was initially worried as I didn't have the best A Level results.
How was calling the university during Clearing?
I contacted ARU during Clearing, and they couldn't have been more helpful or supportive. I spoke to my course leader, who put my mind at ease about my capability of doing the course and answered a lot of questions that I had. When it was time to make the application, the process was simple and easy.
Have you enjoyed your course and time at uni?
After I started, ARU had a huge amount of support available. I was able to hit the ground running and ended up graduating with a first and starting a postgraduate degree shortly after. It was the best decision I could have made.
