Default Do old people go to Uni?

Once again I have been looking at what to to when I finally can't take the stress and hours of my current job any longer - hopefully I'll hang in for another four of five years, but then there will be a long wait until pension, pipe and slippers.
One thought I had was to go to Uni for a year or two, stimulate the grey matter. Its getting on for 30 years since I didi my HND and Tech Dip, but I enjoyed the experience. Looking into finances, I'd have to pay the 3.5k annual fee, but a chunk of that could be offset by student status, thus not paying council tax.

So my original question, are there students at uni in their early fifties? - if so are they welcome, or considered a burden on rescources?
