Celebrating 25 years of Go Higher

Join us for an exciting day at the University of Liverpool as we celebrate 25 years of Go Higher this year. Following the success of last year's event, we will once again be opening our doors to the public to allow them to sample what it's like studying as a mature student at the university.

Return to Learn Day 2025

On Wednesday 9th April, the University will be opening its doors to the public to allow them to sample a range of what it offers in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. The day will feature hands-on workshops with different departments from the faculty.

The Return to Learn Day is aimed at adults who have been out of education for some time, and for anyone who may be considering returning to study as a mature student. The event is being hosted by Go Higher, the University of Liverpool’s unique access diploma, designed for adult learners as a fast-track entry route into undergraduate study. Whether you’re considering taking a degree as a mature student, or just want to see what goes on in a University, the Return to Learn Day gives you an opportunity to find out more. You will be able to talk to staff and current students about what it’s like studying as a mature student, as well as sampling teaching from a range of different departments.

The Return to Learn Day promises to offer an entertaining and educational insight into areas of the University not often seen.

Refreshments and lunch will be provided.
