Hey,

Studying any healthcare course can be intense and time consuming however, you can definitely still have a social life.

It is important to note that studying Nursing you will be required to go on placement. However, you will be told when you will be on placement in advance.

When studying at university it is important to have a social life and this can be achieved when studying a Nursing degree.

Our top tips to achieve this is:

Make friends with people studying on your course and beyond. It is important to have a good support network around you when studying and to socialise with.

Work around your deadlines. It is always best to start your assignments early by doing this you won't have as much pressure. You will then be able to go out and socialise.

Many universities have clubs and societies which is a great way to socialise and make new friends.


I hope this helps :smile:
