Do not be frightened to go back to studying, it isn’t easy but it’s definitely worth it! I made the leap into postgraduate study 7 years after completing my undergraduate degree however the distance learning and the invaluable support provided by the tutors ensured I could incorporate studying into my daily life, whilst still being able to maintain a work-life balance.Jaspal Shergill, graduate
