I attended Central College Limerick in September 2018. I did the Pre Nursing course. From this course I gained alot of knowledge and work experience in the line of Nursing. I couldn’t recommend this college enough as the tutors are more than helpful and were willing to assist me all the way. This course in CCL has been very successful for me as I got offered Nursing in Napier University Edinburgh, Stirling University Scotland and University College Cork. I’m currently studying Nursing in UCC and couldn’t be happier. I got offered my first choice on my CAO in the first round offers. Advice I’d give to current students doing the Pre Nursing course is to work hard, keep on top of your assignments and make the most of your work experience.
