Nursing as second degree - funding Q

Hi everyone,

I already have a Bachelors degree and have recently heard it’s possible to claim full undergraduate funding for nursing as a second degree.

Nursing is something I was already interested but I thought I needed to train up within a hospital who was willing to sponsor me.

I have heard however it’s possible to claim full tuition fee and maintenance loans to study nursing as a second degree - is this true and does anyone have any links to online info about this?

Hi there,

Yes, Nursing degrees are exempt from previous study rules as long as you're not already registered in the field you're looking to study. Thanks, Jason
