Overview

Starting university — or returning after some time away — can feel exciting, but also a little isolating, especially when most faces around campus seem fresh out of school. This event is designed to help mature students find their crowd right from the start. 

  • Our Connection Tables will make breaking the ice easy: choose a table that matches your interests such as travel, career change, family life, hobbies, or study goals, and chat with others who share your experiences. Every 10–15 minutes, you’ll rotate to a new table, meeting a variety of people and building your campus network.  

  • Grab a drink from our Coffee & Tea Bar — complete with non-dairy milk options— and enjoy bite-sized treats while you mingle. Vegan and gluten-free options will be available.  

  • Open to any University of Glasgow student over the age of 21 at registration.
