Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
This three-year programme leads to professional registration as a midwife with the Nursing and Midwifery Council. A course like this typically builds from clinical foundations through to specialist practice and leadership. You'll usually start with core midwifery skills, communication and person-centred care, alongside anatomy and physiology. Year 2 typically moves to assessing and managing acute and long-term conditions, medicines management, and broadens your practice placements into community and specialist settings. Year 3 usually focuses on complex care, leadership, evidence-based practice, and transition to registration. Throughout all three years, supervised clinical placements run continuously (approximately 50% of your time), so you'll apply classroom learning directly in healthcare settings. You may specialise in areas such as adult nursing, mental health, children's nursing, community and primary care, and leadership.

International students
What applying to University of Hull from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by University of Hull; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check University of Hull’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with University of Hull and gov.uk before you apply.
