Admission requirements and documents

Use the programme-specific admission call: medical, dental and pharmacy selection and national-qualification recognition are separate. Confirm the current test, applicant category, English evidence and patient-contact language.

Tuition fees and total costs

No single tuition figure for every British applicant is verified in this directory. Ask how the university assesses your fee and which financial documents or reductions may be relevant before entering a figure in the budget planner.

Use the programme-specific fee year and written offer. The budget planner adds editable living costs, travel, setup costs and contingency; those assumptions are not university quotations.

What to confirm with the university

  • Which admission call applies to my intake and nationality?
  • How is my individual tuition assessed?
  • Where will practical training take place and in which language?
