Student la vârsta a treia, în România: o studentă la 90 de ani și una de 60 de ani explică cum „niciodată nu e târziu să înveți”

In Romania, older students are increasingly enrolling in universities, with over 3,600 students aged 55 and above. Amalia Susana Tușa, at 90, is the oldest student, pursuing a master's in Pastoral Psychology. Beatrice Merlă, 60, is studying Social Work after a long hiatus due to personal circumstances. Both women emphasize that it’s never too late to learn and share their inspiring journeys. Their experiences reflect a broader trend in Europe, where older individuals seek education for personal fulfillment rather than career advancement. The generational gap in classrooms is not a barrier for them, as they engage well with younger peers, finding joy in their studies and interactions.
