Hey soIiIoquy,

The course does not require an interview as part of the application process, so you won't be required to attend and interview; also, as you have received an unconditional offer, it usually means that your place on the tour is secure.


Ahhh

thank you!

Hi there @nanaa_t!

1. Congratulations on your offer, that's fantastic news!

2. Awesome, how'd you find them?

3. Good place to be inspired though, and CSI is a great show, are you into watching shows along that theme? If so, I definitely recommend Bull which is quite good but it focuses more on the court room aspect.

4. Well try not to worry too much, I am sure you'll be absolutely fine! But hopefully your studies go well and fingers crossed for you, as I know how stressful the last year can get so try and take some rest breaks in between your studies as well.

5. Perfect place to find those out, we do offer an accommodation tour on our Open Day so that's a great way to see what kinds we offer, so I'd definitely recommend signing up for those on the day! We also do course stands which run throughout the day, they're usually manned by students and staff from the course so they're a great place to stop off and talk about assessments as well as get a more detailed perspective of the course.

6. That's okay, you'll have a great opportunity to get a feel for the campus and our facilities on our Open Day! But if you don't, let us know and we'll be happy to arrange a facilities tour.

7. Let us know what you think of our accommodation when you do have a chance to have a look around! :h:

8. Good choice in societies and you can normally meet them and find out more about them on the Sports and Societies fair during Freshers, it's a great way to discuss loads of societies and sign up for the ones that catch your eye!

10. You're welcome! :h:

We just thought we'd introduce ourselves to you as you've all been so kind as to pop into this thread and say a little something about yourselves! We're the Enquiry team here at DMU (De Montfort University) and we help students, applicants and everyone in between find out more about what DMU can offer (from courses, to placements, to our #DMUglobal and #DMULocal opportunities).

We try our best to help students out, as many of our team are former students from DMU, so we try our best to make everyone feel welcome and get to know more about us.

So if you have any questions or need our help at all, you can tag us on a post (@DMU Enquiry Team) on our student room forum.

You can also get in touch with us our new Facebook group, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Linkedin and as usual, you can contact us on [email protected] or call us on +44(0)116 2 50 60 70 or Whatsapp us on +44(0) 7960086989.

Hey there @Devohannah! I believe the holidays do not differ too much from those whose start in September, you can view our calendar here. However, you are more than welcome to get further clarification regarding this with the Faculty of Health and Life Sciences (who oversee our Nursing courses) on 0116 257 7749.
