The object of this study was to determine whether any form of selection is applied to student nurses and if so, which selection methods are being used in the selection of students for the basic course for registration as a general nurse or the basic integrated courses leading to registration. All universities, colleges of nursing and hospital training schools were involved in this investigation. The investigation indicated that selection was in fact applied, but that many problems, deficiencies and needs exist. The single major need is for a specific standardised instrument for use in the selection of nurses.
