Yes I was due to be interviewed on Saturday and received a call informing me that it's no longer running this September. I was then offered interviews for either social work or children's nursing for this September instead. I was told it may run next year??? Really disappointed about this. I'm surprised no one has contacted you.

Very strange! I will be contacting them in the morning to see what's going on. I wasn't able to speak very long as I was nearing the end of my break in work. He definitely said it was cancelled and was something that had just been decided hence them only contacting me today! He was very apologetic. But hearing that they're only just doing your checks does sound strange!

Hi I rang them just before they closed before. The guy who answered said he needed to take my details and get back to me about this. I received a call ten minutes later to be told it definitely won't be running this year, neither will the other dual course which I then enquired about. I said I was unsure what to do wether to wait till next year or just go ahead and do something else this September. He said there's no guarantees the course will run next year and I could be in the same position again. Like you I'm really disappointed, also sorry you had to find out from my reply, I presumed you would have been informed before me. However the guy said it was only just yesterday afternoon it had been decided, maybe they haven't informed all staff yet hence them saying it was still running.

I'm sure in these circumstances they'll offer you a place on the nursing course or social work. They offered me an interview on either one to compensate. They said there are places left for September. Don't worry I'm sure you'll be given priority. Good luck hope it works out whatever you end up choosing in September.

Oh no that must be extremely frustrating for you. Hope you hear back soon as they say no news is good news, although your probably sick of hearing that old saying now! I'm not sure what to do yet but feeling a little more inclined towards the nursing degree. I'm hoping that the university still gets some extra funded places from the NHS to compensate for the now cancelled nurse/ social work degree places. I've heard the nursing degree is extremely competitive. If I get on I'm sure I'll see you in September, you will really deserve that place after all that waiting.

It is competitive but don't let that put you off !!! If it's something your interested in go for it !!! And INo they probably will do to be honest as those eight extra places may count towards it .... Am really scared because people have offers already just feel it's a no :frown: I really thought my interview went really good !!!! X
