This PDA twelve-week distance learning course starting offers those considering an application to the BSc/BSc (Hons) Veterinary Nursing degree an opportunity to improve the quality of their application and gain valuable personal and academic skills.

The course is particularly aimed at those who have completed a Veterinary Care Assistant qualification, Scottish Highers or a HNC/HND course and who, without this additional course, would fall short of the entry requirements to apply for the Veterinary Nursing degree.

This course costs £260 and students are likely to need to be self-funded.

Please note: This course requires you to attend assessment at our Aberdeen campus for 1-2 days (depending on current Covid-19 guidelines).
