university of york

im trying to decide between leeds and york and saw that york doesnt really have a city centre like manchester or leeds. i feel like the mainstream shopping options are very limited, is this true? since i am muslim i was wondering if there are alot of halal options available since york is a prodominently white area? thank you

Hi!

We have an international food and halal store called Makkah International which is about a 10 minute walk from Campus West. We also have this handy web page with more details about supermarkets near campus :smile:

Hi,

This is what I've heard back from the department:

Because of how limited the slots are for child nursing, we don't allow transfers onto the route internally or externally. It's a very high demand course and students don't tend to drop out once they've accepted their place, so in most instances we wouldn't be able to facilitate a transfer regardless.

Adult and Mental Health Nursing open the doors to a wide variety of child specific areas of nursing in the future. If you were to choose an adult or mental health route into nursing, once you have qualified, you would still have career opportunities in many areas that would involve working with children, such as:

•

Children's wards,

•

Child and Adolescent Mental Health

•

School nursing

•

Special Care Baby Units

•

Health Visiting

•

Emergency Department Nursing

Hope this helps!

Hazel 🙂

Hi, I’m doing adult nursing at York starting September, for the specific reason that it opens the doors to such a wide and varied fields and not just ‘adult’. I hope to see you there! 😊
