@CamembertPaws FYI

I applied for children's nursing at Swansea and have an interview Thursday 🤞🤞

I’ve heard back from 4/5 universities, I got an offer from uwe Bristol and Surrey but rejected from Southampton ☹️ just waiting back for one more uni and then I will decide on my firm and insurance!

How’s everything for you?

I’ve applied and got interviews for Sheffield Hallam, Lincoln, Nottingham and derby uni for mental health nursing. My 1st interview is tomorrow and I have one on Thursday! 😬 I’m quite nervous about them, also a mature student (38) so have my qualifications already. I actually have Covid right now so I’m grateful the interviews are online!

Hi! I have an interview at Derby uni in a couple weeks, are you able to give any advice on what I can expect, please? 😊

Hi everyone!
I have applied for adult nursing and received offers from University of York (top choice), University of Leeds and University of Huddersfield. I am still waiting to hear back from University of Nottingham and I have withdrawn from York St John University.
Good luck everyone 😊

Hi! Congrats on your offers 😊 I have an interview at Huddersfield in a couple of weeks, are you able to give any advice on the interview at all, please?

I just did my interview for huddersfield today, it was 1 on 1 online and lasted around 25 minutes. They ask you numerous questions about the scenarios they give you beforehand and help you when needed to push you in the right direction into getting the correct answer! There isn't any trick questions and they genuinely want you to succeed with the interview, I'd look into the NMC code and other ethical guidelines to get a rough idea of them such as the data protection act

I applied for pre reg child nursing (MSc) at huddersfield. Does anyone know how long it usually takes them to respond/invite to interview?

Hi! I applied for BSc Mental Health Nursing at Huddersfield and was invited to an interview after about 3 days and then I received an offer 4 days after my interview. Hope this helps 😊

Hi! Thank you for your help and congrats on your offer! I applied almost 2 weeks ago, and have since only been told the application is being considered and could take several weeks. I applied directly to the uni through their application though as opposed to UCAS so maybe that makes a difference?

I've got interviews for York Leeds and Hull - I'm so pleased. Has anyone else applied for children's nursing? I'm a bit worried about how competitive it is, I'm really excited to interview and have done lots of interviews before and have always done really well but this is a whole different thing!
