We believe it is important to support bright and ambitious students in joining our academic community, wherever they are from.

To secure the award, you must select Surrey as your firm choice on your UCAS application for a Nursing course.

  • Hold an offer to study a full-time Nursing bachelors degree programme at FHEQ Level 4 (first-year entry)
