Hi! I've applied for Oxford, Edge Hill (Manchester), Northampton, Liverpool John Moore and Bournemouth. I have an interview for Oxford on the 18th, Edge Hill on the 10th of March I believe and Northampton on the 27th of March. Haven't heard back from Bournemouth unfortunately. Liverpool was quite amusing because they rejected my application on the grounds of "the applicant does not state whether they hold a full driving licence", even though the third line in my personal statement reads "I hold a full UK drivers licence, with provisional C1 entitlement". Obviously some of their staff need to go back to school! Has anyone heard back from Bournemouth yet? Was really hoping for an interview!

Hi, I think some unis are taking there time as I haven't heard back from three of mine, which is worrying but they may still give you an interview

Hi Charlotte!

I think you're right, I may still be in with a chance, but from what I've heard from other friends applying for these courses around the country, some uni's are interviewing up until May! So the one's you've picked may be taking their time. It makes no difference whether you're interviewed first or last really. If they're interviewing you, they have places available! Keep positive and I'm sure they'll give you a chance :biggrin:

Hi there everyone, i'm the student rep for the intake start in 2013. Just to let you know Brookes is very chilled out and relaxed and I have been really happy here. If any of you have got offers at Brookes why not start up a facebook page so you can all start communicating now at this early stage. It worked for us. You can find our page if you look up Oxford Brookes Paramedic Students 2013-2015. Good luck to you all and hope to see you next year. Jeremy

The facebook page is a great idea. Thank you. I have set one up 'Oxford Brookes Paramedic Emergency Care 2014-2016'.
Congratulations on the offer! :-)

Hi,

I did my A Levels, double A Level in Health & Social Care and an A Level in ICT. I then had a year out where I worked in the Emergency Department for six months and then in the Clinical Management Team as an Outreach Assistant Practitioner. There are loads of people on the course with access qualifications :smile:
