UCAS Midwifery 2023

Original post by Nicky1310

Hi I am just wondering if anyone who is applying for the Midwifery degree September 2023 has sent there UCAS application off yet? I am just debating when the best time will be for sending mine. I am thinking about sending it when I've been to the open day event on the 1st October after I've spoken to the Midwife's.

Maybe waiting until you been to the open day on 1st October as this way you'll have more information about midwifing and then you can decide what to do next as it doesn't make any difference sending your application in now or waiting for a few more weeks as you have until the deadline.

I'm sure you'll already know this below....
25 January 2023 (18:00 UK time): 2023 entry deadline for all UCAS Undergraduate and Conservatoires applications, except for those courses with a 15 October deadline
Are university applications open for 2023.

Applications for the 2023 academic year are now open. Applications for Faculty of Health Sciences, Bachelor of Architecture; Bachelor of Audiology, Bachelor of Speech-Language Pathology; BA Film and TV will close on 30 June while applications for all the other programmes Wits offers closes on 30 September.

Hi I am just one of them people who like to sort everything early. I hate leaving things till last minute. Plus January is only 3 months away so not that long. In my personal statement I talk about my personal experience and why I would make a great midwife, I also put in about the 6cs, and where I wanted to work after the 3 years. And remember just be yourself.

Unfortunately all anybody else can suggest is examples of what they might have put into there personal statement as it's up the individual candidate to write there own information.

I think that Nicky1310 is absolutely right about doing her personal statement etc early as it gives you time to research about other things you might need for a interview.
I was exactly the same as her when I did my adult nursing applications and get rejected still every year for about 5 years on the trot until I eventually put down midwifing and got offered that over adult nursing which actually saved me going back to university to do the shortened top-up degree course.

I would say be yourself and do all your research and revision for any potential interview okay.

Good luck with all of your applications :smile:

Just remember that 25th January 2023 (at 6pm) is the equal consideration deadline - so you've got plenty of time to write your personal statements, get them checked and get your applications in.

All the best,

If you feel you are a strong candidate I would recommend to get the application in early in the hope that you get an early interview.

Where places are at a premium (which tends to be the case for midwifery) some unis tend to offer some places early and once this quota is filled they hold everyone else back for the equal consideration deadline which means it maybe March/April/May before you hear back - the wait can awful!

Hey there! I've just finished the final draft of my personal statement and now I'm waiting on my school to give me the green light. Is anyone else applying to Hertfordshire, KCL, City Uni, Oxford Brooked or West London?
I feel stressed cause I'm applying to unis that are very competitive. Would love to stay in contact with someone going down the same route as me.

Could we make like a group chat or something?
