It's never too late to pursue your study abroad dreams -having a study gap is an advantage.

 

Are you considering studying at university but are concerned you might have missed your moment? Being a mature student is a popular choice; you shouldn't be ashamed or limit yourself from achieving your study-abroad dreams. 

You might fall into any of these categories or may have a personal reason for a delay in your academic journey. 

But don't worry much about it; by the time you are done reading this article, you will understand how a study gap is nothing but a blessing to you. 

We are often asked if there is an age limit to apply and study at university and are happy to confirm that there is NOT. All universities will welcome applications from individuals across many different circumstances and life stages.

Some reasons applicants may have a study gap include:

🛑 Those wishing to return to education after some time away

🛑 Those whose school education was curtailed or disrupted.

🛑 Those seeking an intellectual challenge to enhance their professional or personal life

Mature students bring a wealth of experience and make a valuable contribution to the diversity of the student population. For students going for postgraduate studies, the study gap has no significant effect on their dreams.

A study gap for postgraduate students refers to a period when a student takes a break from their academic studies between their undergraduate and postgraduate programs, or between two postgraduate programs.

Study gaps can vary in duration, from a few months to several years. Having a study gap can have its benefits, such as gaining valuable experience or refreshing one's academic perspective. This gap can occur due to various reasons, such as taking a break from studies to travel, work, or pursue other interests.

In summary, no matter your age, pursuing your study abroad dreams is achievable. This simply means there is no age limitation for one to go for his/her master's or PhD degree. And we at Vantage Migration help students worldwide achieve their study-abroad dreams irrespective of their age, discipline or grade.
