Hi all I am interested in living and working in Australia, specifically Sydney or Brisbane. I am currently in 2nd year of my Bsc of Adult Nursing in the UK. My question is does anyone know of any Universities/Colleges that will accept International...

Thanks for that info:nuke: I have now emailed several uni's that I have found but always welcome more. While searching the boards here I came across an old post that suggested that if I was to stay in the UK and graduate with my Bsc in Nursing, which...

Thank you so much, I can see the light:chuckle I am currently a 2nd year Student nurse studying Adult Nursing, I won't be short on any Medical or Surgical but I will def be short on Paeds, Maternity and Mental Health. Do you think I should contact ...

Can anyone give me the names of any of the Schools that may take someone as a guest student to top up hours? I'm not worried what State they are in, I just want a light at the end of the tunnel.... Thanks

Oooh, I'd be very interested to hear the answer to this myself. I was hoping to maybe go over on a Student Visa, that way I could study and live there and if I really like it could maybe try and apply to stay permanently after I graduate.

I can't find anything relating to this course that OGP is offering on their website. Plus it states that you must have at least one years experience, I suppose by the time I get over there I likely will but it means I couldn't apply until I have:scr...

Hi all I am currently a 2ndyr Student Nurse studying Adult Nursing and I currently reside in the UK. When I graduate I hope to move to the US, I am particularly interested in Massachusetts, Boston in particular. I know when I graduate I will be shor...

I am looking into the qucikest and easiest way possible to come to the States. I am particularly interested in the Boston/New England area. I am a 2ndyr Student Nurse currently residing in the UK and I realise that I will be short of Paeds/Mental H...

Unfortunately my University seems to be the only ones that do not offer electives in other areas. The elective I chose to do is A & E as I figured I may get some clinical hours there, also this is where my interest lies. So far my clinical place...

So for example, if I was to apply for a working visa which allows me to stay in Australia for 12 months and work with one employer for up to 6 months, could I work as a nurse? I was hoping to maybe work with an agency or something first so that I co...

Hi I also want to go to Sydney and work but it'll be the tail end of 2008 for me:o Is it possible to go over on a working visa and then apply for permanent residency while there? I have loads of family in Sydney and lived there myself for 5 years ...

Can I confirm if this applies to Adult Nursing Diploma students as well as Adult Nursing Degree Students? I am currently a 2nd yr Adult Diploma Student, hoping to graduate with the degree, I just have to pass all of my exams first time! My concern ...

Hi all I currently reside in Scotland and have completed my first year of Nursing at University level. However after serious consideration I have decided that because I have always wanted to live in the States it would seem more appropriate that I c...

Hi guys I was wondering what it's like to Nurse in a big hospital in Sydney. I am almost finished my 1st yr in Nursing and I hope to do Forensic Nursing (Sexual Assault Examiner) but work in the ER while doing this. Are the Er's busy in Sydney? I ...

Hi all I know I don't graduate until March 2008, but I was wondering how long it would take to apply to get in as a new Graduate? I have been surfing the web and understand that several hospitals offer programmes to recent graduates, but I realise th...

Hi all I have a question. I am currently coming to the end of my first year of Adult Nurse training. So far my placements have included Infection Unit (7 weeks), Community (7 weeks) and presently on Care of The Elderly (7 weeks). In my Communtiy pl...

Hi all I am contemplating moving to Sydney when I graduate. I lived there for 8 years and have loads of family there. I am currently in the UK and am a 1st year student nurse. However my main interest is Forensic Nursing. I am wondering if it is...

Surely I can't apply for immigration until I qualify. I was hoping that because I would be a nurse and it is on the SOL it would be fastracked. I plan to immigrate with my fiance, we will be married by that time though. Summer

Thanks for all the replies so far. Yes I am currently studying for the Adult Nursing Degree. I am quite open as far as where I immigrate to. All my family resides in Sydney apart from a few who live in Callala Beach, and because I stayed in Sydney...

Hi all I am a 1st year Student Nurse in Scotland and my future plans are to immigrate to California after I have qualified, unsure where at the moment but San Francisco or South California interests me most. My questions are: 1. Not sure if some may...

Hi all I am a 1st year student at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, Scotland, and I am curious about nursing in the military. I have looked at the thread entitled military nursing, but it seems to be aimed at people in the States. My question is...

Just any information at all really, I can only find basic stuff on the web. Firstly although military nursing interests me, I'm not too sure I could handle going to places like Iraq. Is there any way to join the RAF without having to be deployed in ...

Hi all I am only in my first year of Nursing, but I would like to come and live in Sydney again!! I have immigrated back and forth between Scotland and Sydney throughout my life, (not by choice, my parents). I was born In Scotland. I am hoping to do...
