2016 Nursing Applicants!

Oh cool! That's the only PgDip you're applying for though right (because of funding or am I going mad/can't read!)?

I don't even want to joke about being course mates in case I jinx anything!! Definitely can't handle this stress haha!

Hahaha I know I just want it to be over with!!! Yeah I applied to City/Middlesex/LSBU/Kings for BSc too

After digging, I won't really get any money on the BSc either so swings and roundabouts haha

@Irishbroad you are incredible. Even though I don't know you, I am very proud of you. I am sure you will be offered a place. x

I'm sure you'll do great! Are you only applying to one uni?

I wanted to apply this week but my reference is taking months!! Haha

hie Adaka im applying at Northampton as well. all the best

I applied to stafford and wolverhampton. I got my social worker to do a reference for me, hubby and I do short break foster care for children with disabilities, and she had it submitted within 30 mins of me sending the link, it was great. wolverhampton for jan 16 start and Wvs and Stafford for september start. Any idea when I would find out if I have an interview for Jan start ? x

I've applied for march 2016 for adult nursing, I'm 23 and have been to university before but decided I wanted to change my degree and be a nurse, I've since worked within the healthcare sector as a support worker for adults with autism for 2 years and I've worked in a NHS trust hospital for 6 months as a HCA in the outpatients clinics, my qualifications are in fashion and the uni's I've applied to have all said that this is fine and suitable as they are at the level they require and my experience in health will make up for lack of health quals. I'm doing the pre degree nursing care certificate through the hospital, which i hope goes in my favour, but i'm really nervous that the course's I've done previously have been in art and fashion

Hiya, do you know if its too late to apply now to start an access course in January? I'm from London and I know Dagenham&Barking college have a Jan intake but i wonder if its too late. I spent a year trying to enjoy Health and social care foundation degree but im not happy with it its not what i have a passion for
