    Yeh that's on my offer too, I think it just means that as long as the NHS fund the places for their offers then we're all good I don't think it's anything to worry about!

    Thank you! I might email admissions tomorrow, I don't want to put them as my firm choice and get rejected even if I do get a C. and two Bs.

    I didn't think I was going to be accepted to either one so didn't really have a preference, but I've just accepted Cardiff as my firm and Glam as my insurance (I've already got all my grades though) and just applied for residences at Cardiff too so all sorted! scary stuff.
    I know a year seems so long to wait, I've had a few years out already so just want to get stuck in now

    I've put allensbank down as my first choice as its practically on heath campus, and I had friends living there last year who said most of the people living there were doing nursing/OT/radiography, but had people doing all other courses too!
    Then got Talybont north as 2nd and 3rd, they're a bit cheaper but a bit further away

    What ones are you thinking about?

    I'm not really sure tbh, my offer is for March '13 so don't know if that makes a difference? Are you starting in September?

    Anyone in here in the March intake? If so are you thinking about living in accommodation or traveling?

    Has anyone had anything through yet about the NHS bursary?
    When I rang Cardiff uni a few weeks ago they said they would send something through late May/early June with a reference number on but not had anything yet!

    I've checked UCAS and it still says conditional on there being a funded place... maybe the bursary stuff won't come through until our places are confirmed? Might ring them later!
    Still trying to put my student finance app through

    Hi, I'm doing child nursing and contacted the university who told me that I do not need to do anything for the bursary and they would do it all for me in August and I only needed to apply for the reduced loan. A bit worried that we all seem to be hearing different things. :confused:
