Tuition fees
My two preferred universities are Leeds Beckett University and Sheffield Hallam University. The course that I am doing which is adult nursing is funded by the NHS as it’s a health care course. This means that the NHS pays for my tuition fees for the duration of my study straight to the university. These payments don’t have to be paid back to the NHS. The NHS also gives a £1,000 non-means tested grant to all eligible full time undergraduate students.
Loans and scholarships
Student loans come in two forms the first is a tuition fee loan I paid directly to the university to pay for the student’s course. This is loan is a maximum of £9,000 for full time students and £6,000 for part time and college students. The second type is a …show more content…
There are a lot of job opportunities for registered nurses at the moment as there is a shortage in the NHS, which makes me finding a job easier. Going to a higher education institution and gaining a degree in nursing might increase my salary than someone who has just a diploma in nursing, increasing the job prospects and opportunities for further training. Another benefit of going to university is that I will build my social skills, budgeting and have more self confidence. Most graduate nurses that work for the NHS follow the NHS pay scale agenda and according to that agenda most graduate nurse’s start at band 5 which has a starting salary of £21,692-£28,180 this salary can go up with further experience and training to band 6,7 and 8. From this estimate when I graduate I won’t have a lot of loan to repay as my tuition fees are already paid by the NHS and all I would have to Pay for is the maintenance loan. For example if I get a nursing job that pays an annual salary of £24,700, I would only have to pay back 9% of what I earn over £21,000 in that year and in this case that is £3,700 and 9% of that is £333 a year which is £27.75 a
