Hiya guys, I have just received my assessment letter from the NMC. I would like to know the application process in applying for the ONP. Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've been told, you need to apply for a university approved by the NMC and the uni will be the ones to secure a supervised placement in an affiliated hospital. It was also stated in the assessment letter that "in order to enrol... you will need to contact an approved educational institution directly".
However, from scouring through a couple of university websites, they prefer that you have secured a practice placement first before applying for the ONP course while other universities did not mention the need for a placement.
That left me a bit confused: apply for a placement in an approved care home/hospital first or go to the university first?
