Hi!! I attended the open day recently and thought it was great. The staff and student volunteers were amazing! Keeping everything crossed for a successful application!
I’m applying for Adult Nursing for March 2025 and i’ve got a conditional offer. Does anyone apply for this course for March 2025 or just me? I know it’s too early for that.

Me too! I'm almost halfway through with Learn direct. I just turned 35 a few weeks ago
Ah, how do you find the Access course with learndirect. I’ve finished Access to Business Management with them last month. Now i’m doing access to nursing with Mediprospects which started in September. I’m turning 35 next month.

Ah, i didn’t know they do live lessons. As when i did access to business, there was no live lessons, o ly self-study. I’m from Vietnam, living in Redditch. How about you?
I’d say if you have the option to go to another university take it!!

If you email the admin team or head of access they can add live lessons for you. Ooh nice, I live in Gloucestershire

Student support is lacking, no activities that are actually available to anyone unless you’re part of a club etc. And even those are minimal. Everything you have to pay for. Courses structures are very “winging it” and it’s clear the only thing the uni is after is your money
Have you tried making your concerns known to the Board of Governors.

I know the Vice Chancellor personally. Tell me your concerns and I'll pass them on.
