About Us

The Mature Students Association is the student representative body for mature students on campus at Adelaide University. Celebrating 25+ years on campus, the MSA provides social and academic support.

 

Campus: North Terrace

The "MSA" is here to support mature students at the University of Adelaide. We face different challenges to the regular cohort on campus and often have to juggle work and family commitments alongside study. We recognise this and find that peer support really helps. Many of our members like to base themselves in the Mature Students Lounge where there are quiet places to study and areas to mingle or just relax and recharge. There are also lockers available to rent and kitchen facilities with tea and coffee provided. We have regular meetings throughout the year to organise lunches, morning teas and social events. Our members span a broad range of ages from across all the faculties and we welcome both undergraduate and postgraduate mature students. We'd love you to join us on our journey through academia!
