Physician Associate Studies Manchester and the NW Programme

Wow that's amazing! I'm so worried as they seem to prefer established health professionals already, I doubt I'll get a look in with my Psychology degree! We'll see I guess 🙈🙈

Were they mostly health professionals that they took on last year? I haven't seen any stats. I'm sure you'll be fine if you've got a good personal statement and i have a feeling they won't be getting as many applications this year with the fee being charged.

I'm not sure, all the PA's I've been speaking with seemed to have been previous radiographers, or nurses, and mostly biomed students!

I received this email today:

"Good morning

Invitations to attend for interview will be sent out on the 9th November to all those applicants who have been successful through long and short listing.

At the close of recruitment we had received 630 applications for the 165 places available across the North West.

Regards "

Oh no I've not had an email I'm worried now. I didn't think there would be that many applicants.

Oh no sorry I received this email because I asked a question x

I'm getting sooo nervous the wait is killing me 🙈🙈 10 days until we find out if we get invited to interview 😩

Will applications that didn't state a preference be ignored?

I know they are opening applications in September sometime. I already got into Sheffield Hallam and Newcastle, but I will be applying to Liverpool and Manchester because I am from near Manchester, no **** Sherlock look at my username, so I could live at home. If I don't get into Lpool or Mancs I will go Sheffield because you get your £9000 course fees paid plus a £5000 bursary which would probably cover my accommodation, but I have no way to fund food, clothes etc. I'll have to look in bins and shoplift.

I'm hoping to apply to Manchester for the Jan 2018 intake, I feel a little uneasy about the applications opening in November, how long will they let one know whether they got in and arrange accommodation all within a space of 2 months? Also I'm starting my job in September and if I want to move away id have to let them know 2 months in advance..so :/

Application for Jan2018 intake for Manchester, Liverpool and Lancashire were open since the 14 August 2017 they havent put a closing date so you might still be able to apply. Heres the link: https://www.nwpgmd.nhs.uk/physician_associate
