OT or Children’s Nurse

So initially I applied for a masters in OT but 3/4 of my choices have not given me a place due to the course being full so I’m unsure as to whether I should take a gap year and re apply next year, keep trying through clearing or opt for a children’s nurse MSc instead?

You only go to one uni - are you not happy with the offer you do have?

Hey, :wavey:

Are you still waiting to hear back from one university?

If it is a possibility for you i would have a look to see if any other university is offering a space through clearing.

If you have your heart set on Occupational Therapy i would pursue with that as like you have said you can apply next year or find alternative universities.

I hope this helps and good luck! :thumbsup:
