since i'm an international student, how can i get references for the university enrollment in London?
i'm italian and i have been living in London for some months, i haven't been working here yet, and i came in London only to apply for an undergraduate degree in nursing at king's college. as i'm not british and i've never worked here, who can i get a reference from? i worked in a hospital in italy for 1 and a half year, as nurse's aide, i could get references from a doctor who know me very well, but she is italian and not able to write in a good english. does anyone know if it's necessary to get references only from someone living in UK? may i get a reference from that doctor, asking for a traslation of an interpreter? how can i do it? please if someone knows, let me know. i really need to know it soon. thank you!!

Get the reference from the doctor. There's no need for your references to be from the UK. Italy is completely acceptable. Have her write it in Italian. At the same time, contact the school, and ask if there is any specific process they need you to follow in terms of the translation.

Get your reference from the Italian doctor. You may be required to pay to have it officially translated, but it's worth asking - the person who will be reading the reference might speak Italian anyway.

Does anyone have any good information on London, England
Does anyone have any good information on London, England?
I used to live there until I was 5 and now I live in the U.S. and I had an accent but, now it's gone...or very far away from what it was. I want it back but, how? It was a Northern London accent. I am only 16 right now but, I was wondering for when I turn 18 where is a good place to live, affordable but, pleasant? Also, I am Catholic and want to go to a Catholic college does anyone know any good ones in London that offer a masters degree in nursing? I was wondering what is the average lifestyle for person living in London from meals to play to exercise to work. I can't find any info except they walk like 10 miles a day I didn't make up the 10 mile thing. I just read it somewhere.

The Universities in the UK are secular, you might find a Catholic society within the University you choose to attend however but if you're studying in London it won't be a problem finding out what parish you'll be living in & where your nearest Catholic Church is. http://www.catholic-ew.org.uk/ This link will take you to UCAS which is the centralised point for making applications to University in the UK, you'll be able to find all the nursing courses on offer & there should be links to the individual Universities websites: http://www.ucas.ac.uk/ This website is aimed at students living in London so you might find some useful information here: http://www.ukstudentlife.com/About.htm

Who walks 10 miles a day? We do have cars and buses and trains and the underground, you know! What a strange idea!

What is a big city live and raise a family in Vancouver, Canada and surrounding areas
What is a big city live and raise a family in Vancouver, Canada and surrounding areas?
I really wanted to move to London from St. Louis, MO but my fiance isn't having it. We have a daughter and by the time we will be ready to move she'll be around 5. I want to live in a big city with some type of hussle and bussle. But I also want to consider living somewhere safe that has decent schools for her to go to. I will have my nursing degree and he has 9 years experience in Food and resturant management. Any considerations? Please... I need enough time to plan.

Your degree may not be valid in Canada But Vancouver is great mild climate great people . If you like the out doors start packing now. The olympics are comming in 2010 . Lots of work now. medicare for everyone About a hundred dollars for a family. Hospital free . Bus passes tax deductable . Go to hellobc and tourismvancouver they have free giudes to mail

Is that London, England or London, Ontario you were interested in, because England is so expensive that I don't know how anyone can afford to live there (maybe that will make you feel better since your fiance says no way). As far as moving to Canada, instead of look at locations, maybe start by looking at what you would require as far as immigration for your family. Check out what you would require as far as being able to use your nursing degree (likely upgrading and testing to qualify). I know many nurses who have left Canada for the USA because they were offered a lot more money to work there, and the Canadian nursing qualification is considered better than the US. Relocating between our 2 countries and being able to earn a living is not the easiest thing to do and takes a lot of patience and time with the bureaucratic process.

i love new westminster, we have all kinds of fairs, festivals, celebrations, and every thing. we also have a waterfront quay, that has fireworks on holidays and special events. Its a great place has great history and schools. and some really nice housing. Its safe and has its own fire station, police force, and ambulance system and hospitals. Before Victoria, we were also the capital of the province! there are parts of New Westminster that are busy and other parts that are quiet and have beautiful housing. we also have a few great parks, my favourite is Queens park it has a spray park, petting zoo and little kids park and a big kids park, there is also a concession open in the summer. we have lots of recreation. two swimming pools, one indoor and one outdoor open in the summer. We are also very close to Vancouver which is very nice.
