Marriage and university

Julie, 3 January, 2023 at 20:09 Posted on Planning 0 2
So I recently go engaged and I’m still in university. Myself and my fiancé are happy to have the wedding sometime next year and this falls while I’m still at university. Should we wait and get married while in my last year or wait an extra year just to get uni out of the way?

    I'd personally wait. I know it's super exiting and if I were engaged while I was still at university, I'd find it hard to follow my own advice! However, when you finish university there will be a huge amount going on in your life - where are you going to live, where are you going to work, what will your income be, will your place of work affect your location and your overall cost of living, etc.

    I'm really grateful that FH and I chose to buy our house before we planned our wedding. Weddings are expensive and costs really can spiral, and you want to sort out the big financial outlays that you'll be committing to every month (whether that's rent or mortagage, bills, etc.) and know your combined earnings before you then work out how much you can realistically afford and save to put towards a wedding.

    Obviously you can still make all the Pintrest boards and start investigating/researching the kinds of things you might want in a wedding or where you might want it, but I think the sensible move is to wait - even though that's not the most romantic move!

    You do what's best for you both of course, but I hope this helps and gives you some things to think about Smiley smile

    When considering which home study diplomas carry the most weight in healthcare careers, I came across https://associationoflearning.com/ which offers a wide range of career-related healthcare courses backed by respected diplomas like NCFE and Cache. From what I’ve seen, diplomas linked to these awarding bodies tend to be more valued by employers because they emphasize practical skills alongside theoretical knowledge. The courses cover various healthcare roles and allow flexible home study to help learners fit study around their careers or family life. Many people highlight how these diplomas have improved their employability, especially in roles that require recognized certification. Moreover, the resources and support available provide a strong foundation for understanding healthcare concepts clearly, which is critical in a competitive job market. This site includes a good mix of diplomas and qualifications that seem purpose-built for healthcare professionals looking to advance. It looks like the combination of flexibility, recognized awarding bodies, and comprehensive course content is what makes these home study diplomas stand out in healthcare.
