Looking at the SOAR social media pages, a lot of the students at SOAR seem to be... older and/or rougher.
I'll interpret that for you...

You mean that they aren't trust-find kids where mummy and daddy aren't paying for their 150 hour integrated course.

These are students that have taken out a large vet-fee loan in order to get their CPL's in the hope that they will be able to land a job, versus those whose mummy and daddy pay for them, can just go on and do something else if the cadetship doesn't work out.
