Aberdeen is a great place to study. I spent 4 yrs there, a huge variety of clubs for all tastes. Go enjoy it, and don't be too worried about the budget, there is always fun to be had and great deals for students.

If you want a skilled job, the best way would be to go back to university - I'm currently doing an Access to Higher Education course which would be suitable for someone like yourself. It teaches skills such as Communications, Maths and Computing as well as 3 specialist subjects in a wide range of areas. This is the best way for a mature student to get to university as it will help you gain the skills and confidence to study at a UK university. I was working in the retail sector before i started the course, and even working my way up - i only managed a salary of about £14,000

Do you really think an employer is going to value a degree that you get without studying?\n\nJust go down to Kinko's and get one printed out if you want to do it like this...\n\n** UPDATE:\nSorry, I misread your question. Some universities will give credit for work experience but will still make you sit an examination to make sure that you know what you claim.\n\nIt is unlikely that they would let you have a complete (legitimate) degree in this way and you would still need to pay to sit each of the exams. Good luck!\n\n** UPDATE II (for Katerina):\nI was referring to degrees where they do RPL (recognition of prior learning). I know that here in Australia you can get some concessions for units in finance type degrees provided you can sit and pass the exams. Unfortunately they sometimes make them a bit harder than usual and you do have to pay a fee.\n\nMy point was that this would not be available for the whole course so you can't get away from study altogether if you want a degree that means anything.\n\nI get lots of spam in hotmail about pay for degrees like I mentioned before I reread the question.

I am not sure but if you contact some of the nursing schools in your are they can most likely send you a brochure.  And if your interest takes you out of the country, make sure your passport is up-to-date and before you go research some more to see what is out their for you, be blessed in your search

I earned bachelors and masters degrees from top level universities. i have yuppie 9-to-5 job at a large organization that is a big name in the field.\n\nmy sister got mediocre grades and earned a bachelor's degree from a no-name college. she makes about 10% more than me, but only works twice a week.\n\nshe's a NURSE.\n\nif you can get into a nursing program (they're kinda impacted in a lot of places) and you can handle the curriculum, then do it! You can make good money with just a 2 year degree. but if you do the 4 year, you make a WHOLE LOTTA MONEY, and you have more opportunites to advance your career.\n\nMed techs don't advance very easily and don't get paid as well. It's better to do med tech if you find that nursing is too rigorous.\n\nPT is only lucrative if you stay for a graduate level PT degree. otherwise, you never advance.

discuss with your syster that you can not continue like that because if you will continue like that you loose your school, and no body will care about you.\nIf she didn't find a solution try to find another place to study.

I LOVE my job!!! I am Director of Nursing in a nursing home and have worked with the elderly for over 25 years. Right now nurses are in demand and wages are higher than ever. In my state, they have enacted a law where if you go to school in Iowa and continue to work for a period of time, they pay a lot of the school costs. It is well worth it. There are a ton of different areas in nursing that you could work and still make a great wage. If you love people and really want to help, GO FOR IT!!!

How about starting in nursing school.\nwhat a concept.

I totally understand what you are going through because I just went through this myself. I started with pre-med but it proved to be too hard for me, as soon as I saw the classes I was going to have to take I knew I needed another major. My aunt and her friends tried to get me into Pharmacy but I just felt like it wasn't for me. So I started to look at nursing and I can tell you that I love it, right now I'm finishing up my last pre-req. classes before starting the nursing program. I recommend that you take a few classes in the pharmacy program and a few in the nursing and then make your choice, you can go in as undecided ( or just put either one) and then change your major so dont worry about that part. Just make sure what ever you choose is because you really enjoy it, like you actually find the classes interesting and can see yourself doing this for the rest of your life, dont get it because of the money, because after a few years that gets  old and you'll eventually hate your job. \nFor me I found microbiology to be great and i knew I was on the right track, but if you hate the classes you just need to move on to another major because it wont work. \nthere is a great need for nurses so you know you will always have a job, plus if you specialize the money is pretty good. Put thought into it, do your research because that's your future.\n wish you the best of luck :)

My one major piece of advice is to manage your time and plan ahead. Plan your week out in advance and set aside time to study and stick to that schedule. It's best to find a job that is related to nursing. Many hospitals offer tuition reimbursement if you agree to work for them once you graduate. That can help with your expenses. As for living arrangements, I would find a roommate that is also in your LVN program. Otherwise you might find it difficult to get quiet time to study if your roommate doesn't understand the pressures of nursing school. Don't be afraid to get low interest school loans to help with bills while you're in school. There are also lots of financial aid programs that not only help with tuition, but living expenses as well. Use the financial aid office at your school for more resources. You can also check with your school about jobs on campus. And don't forget to apply for every scholarship that you qualify for!

I say "More power to you", We need all the Teachers we can get.  I don't know how it works, but if we can hire Nurses from out of the country, then you should be able to work here as a Teacher as well, check with the immigration Dept. I know it's a pain in the rear, but stick to it, it'll all work out.. GOOD LUCK!

contact a local community collage or trade school.... what I did tho is I went to nurseing homes, so many are so under staffed that they will pay your way through the class.

OMG! I want to be a nurse too and in peds too! I know in Cali there are community colleges that offer classes for becoming an RN and it takes about 4 years. You first have to do your pre-requisits and then sign up after those are done, into the nursing program. Then from there you take such classes as anatomy, biology, sociology, etc. But I have to warn you, if you don't think you can do it now then you might not be able to later. There is a 40% drop out rate, so you have to be very determined. I personally love blood and guts but for the life of me vomit kills me to deal with LOL :) If you decide to do it make sure that you volunteer at a local hospital in the department you want to work in. Then you will make friends and be more likely to get in that department after you are done with schooling and are ready to work. I hope this helps!Oh and the pay is great too, up to $5000 a month! Cant beat that!

Here i'l list them for u but it's only for question 1 btw :\n\nI'd rather stay in manchester bcos its wer ive grown up and so id have much more financial support here tahn at a university hundreds of miles away so going to manchester would be a lot more convenient \n\nI was already thinking of going to manchester anyway so teh MAP would be a gratefly appreciated boost into teh university\n\nManchester has all the courses i wanted to do so the MAP would be very useful in helping me get onto those courses\n\nI am very interesed in the team work and social skills building and meeting new freinds that the programme offers and the overnight stay\n\nThe programme would give me a much needed insight itno university life and consequently help me decide on exactly what path i would like to take in the future education wise ( or summit liek taht anyway)\n\nAnd for question 2 i have absolutly no idea at alli don't know if its things like just turning up to all teh classes, putting in additioonal hours and attending all things availiable or if it wants summit more specific than that . But anyway hope this helps not sure if this is what you or tehy are looking for bt its what im gonna put ne way

Wow!  I had to do all that stuff and had a team of 56 to manage.  I could never had gone to university to study as I am an action learner - hitting the ground running.  I would really like to give you some advice, but I was self taught with books I purchased!  \n\nYou've had a lot of advice here.  I hope your lecturers have actually been in the big wide world of work - it does help to have really experienced lecturers who can demonstrate what they teach.  \n\nI did enrol for a part-time evening  course for MA Hons Degree in Business Administration at one stage, but when the lecturer said 'I don't care if you attend of not - I get paid anyway' and then spent the rest of the session strutting back and forth under the NO SMOKING sign, smoking himself silly I lost all respect.  \n\nOf course it didn't help when the boss kept asking me to carry out some urgent task for him on the evening of my course.\n\nAnyway, eventually I ended up as a Chief Executive - and continued to hit the ground running! I'm now retired.\n\nGood Luck
