“Receiving training under the Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing is highly reputable, making King’s nursing students highly sought after. ”
The primary aim of the course is to ensure that King’s Nursing graduates can deliver safe, effective and compassionate care to the public at their point of registration and that they have the ability to develop and refine their proficiencies as qualified practitioners. Nurses graduating from the course will meet the academic and clinical standards set by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (2018), King’s College London and Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (2016).

This course offers students the opportunity to develop the proficiencies required for registration as an Adult Nurse. We’re a mixed community. People of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds join us because nursing at King’s will give them a great start to their careers. That diversity means you’ll always fit in, and always have something new to learn. Throughout the course you’ll experience a huge range of environments – both simulated and real. Whether it’s through primary healthcare, an ambulance service, or a voluntary organisation, you’ll gain a thorough understanding of the sector.

Contextual consideration
We make contextual offers for this programme, which can be found in the entry requirements. As part of the assessment process, we take into account contextual information to gain a more complete picture of each application. More information can be found on the Contextualised admissions website.
Criminal conviction disclosure
Due to the nature of this programme, UCAS requires all applicants to declare on their UCAS application if they have any spent or unspent convictions, cautions or reprimands. All offers of a place, and continued enrolment, are made subject to a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service (formerly Criminal Records Bureau) check.
Deferrals
Applications can be submitted for deferred entry by choosing the appropriate year of entry on the UCAS application.
If your circumstances change and, therefore, you need to request a deferral after an offer has been made, then we can generally permit these for this programme. However, each deferral request will be considered on a case-by-case basis and we reserve the right to decline any post-offer deferral request. Requests should be submitted via a message on King’s Apply with an explanation of the reason for making the request.
Please note, second deferral requests will only be considered where the request is due to extreme unforeseen extenuating circumstances, for example, health reasons. We are unable to permit deferral requests that go beyond two years and you would need to apply again. This is with the exception of deferrals which are due to military/national service.
Foundation courses
Applicants studying Foundation Year programmes in the UK are welcome to apply for this programme. Foundation programmes from other universities and further education providers in the UK are considered on a case-by-case basis. Whether or not we can consider a particular foundation year as suitable for study at King's depends on the content of the syllabus and modules studied. In the past we have accepted foundation programmes from a number of other institutions.
We are unable to accept Foundation programmes that are integrated as part of a main degree at another institution. These may be called Year 0 or Integrated Foundations. We are also unable to accept non-UK Foundation courses.
Once you have submitted an application, the Admissions Office may contact you via King's Apply to ask for further details on your qualification, such as a list of modules and course specifications.
The King's International Foundation Programme has pathways available for progression onto our King's undergraduate degree programmes.
Graduates
Our general entry requirements are based on A-level or equivalent. However, where an applicant is completing/has completed a degree, we are able to consider the degree study as part of the assessment of the application.
Generally, we would consider a minimum of a UK Bachelor degree with a 2:2 grade profile (or overseas equivalent) as meeting the entry requirements for our undergraduate degrees. However, those who have achieved/are predicted a high 2:1 or a First may be considered more competitive.
Once you have submitted an application, the Admissions Office may contact you via King's Apply to ask for further details on your degree study.
Occupational Health clearance
Due to the nature of this programme, all offer holders will be required to complete the Occupational Health Clearance process. Once your application is firmly accepted, the application will be set-up for the Occupational Health Clearance checks. Information is usually sent out by the end of May/early June. Occupational Health Clearance is a requirement for enrolment onto our Nursing programmes.
Personal statement
Your personal statement is one of the many factors in the overall assessment of your application, and is your opportunity to introduce yourself to the university and inform us of your commitment to the programme and how the programme fits into your career plans, as well as any work experience or extracurricular activities you have done. We are looking particularly for evidence of appropriate commitment to, and realistic appreciation of, the academic, physical and emotional demands of a Nursing degree programme and career.
Shortlisting
When considering those students which will be shortlisted for interview the selectors consider the following; GCSE (or equivalent) performance, predicted or achieved A-level grades (or equivalent), the personal statement, and reference. These contribute to the shortlisting of candidates, and we do assess for this programme holistically, taking in to account all these factors and your performance in the context of your educational background.
The interview
No offers are made without an interview. Interviews are held between November and May and you must be available for interview in order to be considered for admission. A large number of applications are received for Nursing and although we recognise that this is an anxious time for you, all applications are carefully considered and therefore you should not expect a decision post-interview until the cycle has completed in May.
Interviews will be conducted remotely. Interviewers will assess a range of values and attributes. Communication skills will also be assessed during the interview. Interviewers have no prior knowledge of candidates and will complete standardised interviewer assessment score sheets.
Resits
We are able to consider applicants who have retaken their qualifications, however, you should bear in mind that your application for this programme will be reviewed alongside other strong applicants who might be viewed more favourably if they achieved the required grades within a standard timeframe, for example, a two year period for A-levels. We will only consider second resits if there are significant mitigating circumstances. In these situations we still cannot guarantee that your application will be considered, but you should submit a Mitigating Circumstances form so that this can be considered alongside your application. Please note, we consider taking the same subject again at the same level, even within a different qualification, to be a resit.
We consider applicants who have recently achieved grades which are below the entry criteria, and have subsequently studied/are studying another qualification to seek entry, such as an Access to HE Diploma or a Foundation programme, to be resit applicants.
Transfers
We are unable to consider transfer applications during the current admissions cycle (2025 entry) for this programme.
If you don't have a suitable qualification for direct entry to a UK university, we can help with our Foundation year courses.
If you have an offer from King's, but English isn't your first language, we have courses to help you.
We use a comprehensive range of teaching and learning methods, each tailored to the current area of study, with simulation playing an increasingly significant role in clinical education. Formal lectures account for only a small proportion of the curriculum. Student-centred learning is pivotal to our philosophy, and our teaching methods support and encourage self-development and awareness through reflection on experience. We utilise practitioners, researchers and lecturers to deliver high- quality research-based teaching. We will use a delivery method that will ensure students have a rich, exciting experience from the start. Face to face teaching will be complemented and supported with innovative technology so that students also experience elements of digital learning and assessment.
You will spend approximately 20% of your time in scheduled learning and teaching activities, approximately 30% of your time in guided independent study, and approximately 50% of your time on placement. Typically, one credit equates to 10 hours of work.
Clinical placements
The course includes an equal balance of theoretical learning and clinical placements with partner healthcare providers including leading NHS Trusts, private and voluntary organisations. The course is full-time, and students will work shift patterns similar to that of Registered Nurses. As a King's Nurse, you'll receive a rounded practice learning experience on placements located across a wide geographical area, find out more.
Summer Vacation:
During the first two years of the programme, summer vacation will fall into one of two possible “waves”. The earlier wave falls across June/July, the later across July/August. During whichever wave students are not on vacation, they will be on placement. During the first term of each academic year, students will be invited to express a preference for one of these vacation waves (but the faculty cannot guarantee it will be met in all cases). For this reason, students are advised not to book holidays or other commitments in the summer until they are aware of their allocated vacation time.
The course includes an equal balance of theoretical learning and clinical placements with partner healthcare providers including leading NHS Trusts and private and voluntary organisations. The course is full-time, and you will be working shift patterns similar to that of qualified nurses. A variety of coursework, written and practical exams are used to assess you and your clinical practice learning.
Your performance will be assessed through a combination of coursework and written/practical examinations. Forms of assessment may typically include written assignments such as essays and case studies, and examinations such as multiple-choice questions or a practical exam such as an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). You will also complete the Nursing Practice Assessment Document (PAD) throughout your programme as the record of your assessment of proficiency in practice. Coursework contributes approximately 60% and examinations approximately 40% to your final mark.
The study time and assessment methods detailed above are typical and give you a good indication of what to expect. However, they are subject to change.
Courses are divided into modules, and students on this BSc (Hons) course take modules totalling 360 credits. King’s College London reviews the modules offered on a regular basis to provide up-to-date, innovative and relevant programmes of study. Therefore, modules offered may change.
