What Students Say

What do you look for in your students?

We obviously want students who can achieve the grades we require for our courses, however, we are also looking for those students to have good transferrable skills which they might have gained through volunteering, work experience, or part of club or sports team. We want the student to tell us in their personal statement about what makes them different from other students e.g. not just saying “I am passionate about studying Midwifery”, but telling us why they want to study Midwifery e.g “I have spent time volunteering with a Mother & Baby group” etc.

What's the hardest part about going to university?

 The strangest thing is starting university, in potentially a new place, at the same time as starting a course, meeting new people and moving away from home.

There are induction activities during Freshers’ Week and during the first week of the course which will allow you to ask lots of questions etc and introduce you to new people.
