Hi Veronica,
It's great to hear from you. I have a crucial question. For those doing the blended learning Nursing programme, I guess we have our placements pre-planned. Does the school make exceptions for people like us who'll rent short-term or for each placement block???

Hi @Nadia71,

Thank you for your message!
I don't believe the university will, no. To my knowledge, the placement coordinator is able to take into consideration any factors that may impact you while on placement, however, it's up to you to sort yourself out. By that I mean, the university can only do so much to support you and if you require something such as accommodation because you're placed far away, it's your responsibility to organise that.
However, it's best to ask the placement coordinator at the next opportunity for clarification.

I hope this is informative.

Thank you Veronica. For those attending the open day, will there be a meet and greet for directions from Birmingham Airport to the venue???

Hi @Nadia71,

To my knowledge, on previous open/applicant days, I've known the university to arrange transport for international students to be picked up from the airport. However, due to COVID, I'm not sure if this is still going on. I suggest contacting the university to find out if this has resumed. If not, you can always use public transport such as the local buses or trains to get to Coventry University.
If you'd like some more information regarding local transport from the airport to the university please let me know and I can try and provide some guidance for you.
