With the rapid development of knowledge and ICT, lifelong learning becomes a necessity for all regardless of a person’s educational attainment level. Not only high school graduates, but also college graduates are under strong pressure to seek the further study in order to keep their skills and knowledge up to date. In this context, this study aims to provide the Korean government with the implications on the student aid system which promotes lifelong learning in higher education. To realize this goal, it compares the student aid systems for mature students of UK and Sweden because participation rates of lifelong learning in both countries are higher than the average of OECD member countries. The findings of the study show that both UK and Sweden have initiated policies to highlight the role of higher education in promoting lifelong learning and have also made it easy for mature students to study at universities through part-time enrolment system and flexible admission system. Accordingly, higher education is part of the national lifelong learning system in both countries and thus older undergraduates are supported by the student aid system. Whereas the student aid systems of UK and Sweden’s are different in terms of their elements and operating methods, they are in similar in that both of them provide mature students with the student aid to enable them to pursue lifelong learning in higher education. The cases of these two countries imply that the development of lifelong learning in higher education requires the financial aid system as well as the admission system, teaching and learning, and student affairs suitable for mature-students.
