Scotland nursing student recruitment 2026
07 Sep 2026 - 18 Sep
Choose event information:
Throughout September 2026 we'll be running a variety of presentations and attending freshers' fairs at universities across Scotland to let students know the benefits of becoming a member of the RCN.
Did you know that the RCN has over half a million members, including over 52,000 Scottish members? We have a strong sense of community and a strong voice in the workplace, which is reinforced through our Reps and Student Ambassadors.
We want to let you know about why we think, as a student, we offer the best support through your nursing studies including our unique library services, supporting you with your practice placement and one-to-one careers coaching amongst the many other benefits.
We hope you'll join one of our sessions for nursing students at your university.
