Social work 2015

hey guys, I am applying to study undergrad social work in Bristol UWE and Swansea and was wondering whether anyone here has applied and been successful on here? I am just curious as to those uni's interview procedure. I am just starting my Personal Statement etc so I know this is really previous but I am anxious haha.


Here's the Social Work connect/stalking page - you'll be able to see other applicants' grades and offers. If you enter your details it will be really helpful for other people applying. :h:

Hi everyone! Just wondering if anyone has applied to Wolverhampton and received invite for a selection test? I have mine on Wednesday but not sure what to expect, whether it be a literacy or essay type thing? Have contacted admissions but not heard back as of yet. Many thanks :smile:
I submitted my UCAS application last week and had email confirmation that my chosen Uni's had received it yesterday - Northumbria and Sunderland. Scary/exciting times ahead!

Already bricking it for any interviews, but then I feel I'm getting ahead if myself as I may get rejected at the first hurdle!

I wonder how long they take to get back to you?! Eeeeek!
I'm hoping to apply for Social Work once my UCAS reference is done! I'm applying for Sheffield Hallam, University of York, University of Leeds and Leeds Beckett. :smile:
I added Teesside Uni to my app as they seem to respond quickest and I figured it may be good for an interview dry-run - 2 hour travel away, so could never accept a place there..

Had an email offering an interview today - from Teesside! Unfortunately it coincides with a medical appointment (operation) for my youngest son, but have emailed to reschedule - but it gave my UCAS app a test out!

Hello,
I have applied to 3 universities to study social work. I am a mature student and would love to share this journey with others on here. :colondollar::colondollar::colondollar:
Hello!

I've just applied for social work yesterday at Leeds, Birmingham, Bath, Sussex and East Anglia. I'm seventeen, but by the time I get to the course I'll be eighteen. So I'm young but I have an avid passion in helping those who are marginalised and oppressed by society. I'll gladly join this journey.

Where did you apply?

Nope not yet, I only applied yesterday. But Sussex did reply saying that they have recieved my application, like my heart was beating when I got it. I was bricking it! Congratulations on your interview! How's your essay going? And what's it on?

Sussex were the first uni I heard from. So hopefully you will hear soon too. I had an option of 5 different questions. I've gone for what children look for in a social worker and why? I've made a plan so going ok I think!!!! Can't wait for my brighton interview just hope it all works out.

Ok so I am completing my Level 5 FDA Foundation Degree Children and Young People's Services at Derby and I am contemplating which Uni to go to next year.
Does anyone know of any universities which accept FDA CYPS to get into social work? Thanks in advance
