Midwifery in Scotland applicants

Hi, is anyone applying to Midwifery in Scotland? Have you received any interviews yet? I have received one from RGU which I am so so happy about. Anyone heard from anyone else?
Hey! I had an interview with RGU a week ago! Hate waiting for a reply! When is your interview x

Don't panic okay as you'll soon here from them.

Just remember that they are dealing with thousands upon thousands of application and then notify any potential students for interviews.
There is only about 250 midwifing places for the whole three universities in Scotland that offer midwifing degrees - Napier is about 95 places, UWS is about 75 places and RGU with about 80 places - this is very difficult to achieve from the amount of applications each year as the amount of places isn't really enough but this is how they do it.

I was about 6 weeks after my interview before I knew I had a place at Napier and I am about 3.5 years qualified.

Hopefully you'll get notified very soon regarding any offers.......

Hello, I was told during my interview that if you still haven't heard back, you still have a chance. And that could be right until August because some applicants who were given conditional offers would not have met the conditions. So hang in there 😊

You'll certainly here long before August because it takes time for your bursary to sort out and your university fees to be sent to your chosen university, plus you'll have to perhaps attend a occupational health assessment and get your DBS ( PVG In Scotland) done before you can start your midwife degree at beginning of September.
