Review of UCAS Personal Statement

The Personal Statement is your opportunity to indicate your personal desire and motivation for a career in Nursing.

The Personal Statement should reflect your expectations of the course and an understanding of Nursing as a profession.

It should also include evidence of relevant skills and attributes which you feel make you a suitable candidate.

Your Personal Statement should be about you and it should demonstrate your readiness for the course.

Please follow UCAS guidance on how to write a Personal Statement.

Applicants who meet the course entry criteria will be required to take the Medical Selection Admissions Test (MSAT-Ulster).

Tests will be held at our Belfast and Derry~Londonderry campuses on 7, 8, 14 and 15 March 2026.
