Summary

Nearly half of UK students identify as commuter students with an increasing number of students choosing to stay at home to commute to college or university, and some chose to study through distance and open learning. This session will look at some of the common misconceptions around this style of study and share how providers support this varied group of students, brought to life through applicant journeys and student stories.
