    CMT are pretty much full as well. I wonder if this all time high has anything to do with the RN cuts and with them currently having a 3 year waiting list to get in?

      Oh noooooo. My first time on the here in about 6 months and get this bad news.

      I had a place all lined up with OOCL last year and something happened in my family so I didn't take up the place and was going to apply again for 2011. **** looks like it will have to be 2012 now. By then I will have just about hit the ripe old age of 29!!!!

        If you dropped out immediately before starting college then a phone call may get them to consider you if someone drops out(just like you did), as I don't see why they would insist on starting an application from scratch. Also gets you on the list for the next intake. If you don't ask, you don't get.

          It could be worth a shot I guess. When I spoke to the woman on the phone last year she said I would have to reapply from scratch so I'm not sure what would happen.

            Clyde have stopped accepting applications now until at least the end of march.
            I only found out after I completed the form when I was looking online for the address to send it to lol. Although it is probably the same address as on the top of the letter but it's too late now lol.

              Send it in anyway, and add a cover letter emphasizing that you don't mind starting at short notice; people drop out.

                Suppose I'd have nothing to lose by doing so, so I suppose it's worth a shot. Even if worst comes to worst I can just apply again for the next intake.
