You can join the army at 18 and go through uni training to be a nurse that the army will no only pay you for but also your full nursing degree + accommodation and a number of other perks. Obviously you have to meet the qualification requirements (if you google Queen Alexandras Royal Army Nursing Corps) and look at the Army jobs page there is lots of information about it. I hope that helps.
