Hi All

Wanted some serious and hones feedback before I apply. I was offered a place at Canterbury Christchurch Uni 3 years ago but even though I passed the Occy Health, the Director of the Programme at the Uni decided that I was too 'large' to be able to undertake the course. (She was a size 6 if that!). I was devastated at the time and through myself back to my old work (safe!). However, I've decided to apply again, this time Bournemouth (Portsmouth Campus) this 2008 but wanted to ask any student midwife, midwife or anyone else in the know, if my size (dress 28) would mean I couldn't undertake the training. I'm currently losing weight to be able to fulfil my dream (4 stone lost so far) but don't think I could handle the rejection on weight alone again! Honest answers appreciated.

Thanks
