just got my application form through the door, I can't wait to start this new career!! Anyone got any words of wisdom for filling out my personal statement?

Just one thing. Don't state how pregnancy is about the baby, Uni's tend to hate that lol

awesome well done! Which uni? mines is at dundee uni

Cassandra - I would see about speaking to a careers advice team, they might be able to help you figure it all out, i know that theres something called an ILA or something but i'm not too sure about where it applies and in what circumstances, it basically gives you £200 towards learning a year which might be able to help heres the link. Thats for scotland but other places might do something similar.

Plus if I remember right access courses to nursing and midwifery which you don't need much for and they take you straight into uni too are free, due to the government trying to get more nurses and midwives.

Hope this helps
