If a university has asked for your CV, you might be wondering where to start. Perhaps you haven't written one in years. Perhaps your work history has gaps, or your qualifications are from another country, and you worry they won't count.
Maybe you left school years ago. Maybe you started a degree and had to stop. Since then, life has filled up with work, family and responsibilities. Now you're thinking about going back, and a small voice is asking: "Is it too late for me?"
You'd like to go to university, but you're not sure you have the right qualifications. Maybe you left school early. Maybe your qualifications are from another country, or from a long time ago. You might be wondering whether there's a way in for someone like you.
