nursing schools that admit non-NHS bursary students

allnurses Guide · Oct 29, 2009

Parfum I think you are going to have to contact the universities directly, much will depend on the demand for places from home students as to if or how many non EU students that will be accepted.

Do a google search you may come up with something and then you will need to contact the university

I know DMU will do this. As do UWE Bristol. I go to UWE and we have a few Irish students who aren't funded by the NHS bursary-wise. Ofcourse this doesn't mean that they don't get their tuition paid, because all places are funded for tuition by the NHS, it's just the bursary you miss out on.

With that being said, you may find a university that will allow non-uk students, yes. But non-uk students have to show that they can support themselves up to 6 grand a year, like every other nursing student. I know DMU required evidence of this.

You wont find much information on the websites about this. What I would do is narrow down a few of your favourite universities you would like to attend (about 5 or 6) and then contact them all individually, speak to someone in admissions for the department, and not the overall admissions team, and speak to them about your circumstances. You'll 9 times out of 10 speak to someone who is dealing with applications for Nursing and can answer all of your questions, that way when they get your UCAS form they might even recognize your name too, something to bear in mind. Always make sure you know the answers to all your questions before you apply to a university and find out that they don't take overseas students!

Hope this helps!
