Official Dietetics / Nutrition Applicants Thread 2026

If you're applying to university for Dietetics and/or Nutrition for 2026 entry, this is the place to introduce yourself to fellow applicants, ask questions and share your experience of applying so far. :smile:

A few questions to start the conversation:

Are you applying to an undergraduate or postgraduate course?

Which universities are you hoping to apply for?

Work/shadowing experience?

Anything else?

Share as little or as much information as you are comfortable with. :yep:


Just a heads up that funding for healthcare courses and eligibility for the NHS Learning Support Fund differs based on where you normally live and where you want to study. Read the following thread before you apply:

Comparing funding for healthcare courses in England, Scotland and Wales


Please don't share details of interview questions on the forum - it gives those who follow you an unfair advantage.

Sharing or requesting social media handles or group chats is not permitted under the TSR community guidelines.

Hi all, I am studying the MSc Dietetics and Leadership course (as a fee paying student and not an apprentice) at Coventry University so if anyone wants any information/advice, I am happy to provide this. Just send me a message.

I have applied to Winchester Uni as a mature student. I am doing an online AHE with Activate Learning, started in Feb, will be done by the end of March 2026. I know there will be an interview, and I do not do well in interviews. 😬
