Adult Nurse courses
Adult Nurse undergraduate degree courses
3 undergraduate degree courses for adult nurses, at 3 UK universities, all 3 years across England.
What the undergraduate degree route means here
An undergraduate degree is the standard way in and the one most people take. You apply through UCAS, usually in the autumn of the year before you want to start, and you can apply straight from school or college or as a mature applicant with an Access to HE diploma. The degree carries the practice placements built into it, so you finish eligible to apply for registration without a separate qualifying step.
Every approved adult nurse course in the dataset follows this route, so this page and the full adult nurse listing show the same 3 courses. That in itself is worth knowing: there is no alternative kind of programme to weigh up in this profession at the moment, so your decision is about university and location rather than about route.
1 of these 3 courses carry a UCAS code, so you apply through UCAS; the remainder take applications direct. No provider on this list publishes a typical offer in a form this site can cite, so the entry-requirements column is empty throughout — check each university’s own page. Whatever the route, the programme has to include 2,300 hours of assessed practice placement, and that is where most of the travel and most of the unpaid time goes.
