Adult Education Wolverhampton is hosting a Higher Education Fair this week aimed at adult learners and members of the public who want to find out more about going to university.

It takes place at Adult Education Wolverhampton’s Foyer Building, Old Hall Street, on Wednesday (15 November) from 10am to 3pm with representatives of universities from across the West Midlands, Staffordshire and Worcestershire in attendance.

Visitors will be able to learn more about different university courses and their entrance requirements, how to apply for courses and get information on costs, grants, bursaries and financial support for travel and childcare. 

There will also be information about specific programmes that can help people make the step up to university, such as Adult Education Wolverhampton’s Access to Higher Education programmes that will be starting in January 2024. 

Councillor Jacqui Coogan, the City of Wolverhampton Council’s Cabinet Member for Education, Skills and Work, said: “If you’ve ever wanted to go to university, but aren’t sure how you could make it happen, please come along to Adult Education Wolverhampton’s Higher Education Fair on Wednesday and find out about what the region’s universities could offer you.”
