Heya guys sorry this is probably going to be a long one but im stuck!
TL;DR - i have a 1st class Zoology degree and not sure how to go about getting into vet nursing
SO i graduated in 2021 with a 1st in Zoology, and planned to take a year out before going back to studying. However a lot of life events kicked off and suddenly its 2024! Ive been stuck between going into conservation, research, or vet nursing for the longest time, but have decided that vet nursing is the most stable and has the most variety - and also is something im interested in! However ive been finding it impossible to get any experience/placements in vets near me (over 20 have said no due to policy reasons), and i have only been able to find 2 volunteer opportunities near me (a doggy day care and a ferret rescue). As awesome as these places have been im worried its not enough! Im currently completing an online Level 3 animal care course and a few other courses (on coursera), but am just feeling stuck.
How do i even apply? Will there be funding available? Will i even get in??
Ive been working as a bar manager for money in the meantime which has not helped for work exp!
Thank you in advance <3
