Extra university places for nursing courses at Anglia Ruskin University

Anglia Ruskin University has been allocated an extra 250 places for students wanting to study nursing, midwifery or other health courses, ahead of A-Level results day on Thursday. 

The university, which has campuses in Cambridge and Chelmsford, says interest has increased in health courses since the start of the pandemic. 

“We’re delighted to have been allocated extra student places for some of our health courses, meaning we can make an even bigger contribution to addressing the healthcare needs of the region and beyond", Professor Aletta Norval, Deputy Vice Chancellor at ARU, said.

“People apply through Clearing for a number of reasons, they may have made a late decision to come to university, or they may have decided not to go through UCAS. They may have changed their mind about what they want to study.

“What is clear is that there are options to suit everyone, and ARU staff are available to speak about what might be the best way forward for you.”
