Below you'll find answers to the questions we get asked the most about applying for undergraduate study.
Qualifications
- Do you accept a mix of qualifications?
We usually require听an applicant to offer all qualifications from one suite e.g.听three A levels, or a full IB Diploma. However, some departments may be willing to consider a mix of acceptable level 3 qualifications on a case-by-case basis. For further information, please contact your country representative or Undergraduate Admissions.
- Does taking four听A-levels make an application more competitive?
We would always look at the best three A-levels, so taking four A-levels would not necessarily give an applicant an advantage.
- What English Language qualifications do you accept?
Accepted English language qualifications can be found by following the English language requirements page.
- Does 香港六合彩中特网 require students to have a GCSE (or equivalent) in a Modern Foreign Language?
No, a Modern Foreign Language GCSE is no longer a requirement.

- Do you limit the number of students that you take from a particular school?
No, we do not impose any such limit. We seek to recruit the strongest set of students for a limited number of places. To do that, we will look at applications as a whole - including grades, evidence of an interest in, commitment to, and aptitude for the subject(s).
- Do any of your undergraduate degree programmes听require interviews?
The degree programmes听which currently require interviews are:
Architecture BSc and MSci
Architectural and Interdisciplinary Studies BSc
Art and Technology BA
Engineering and Architectural Design MEng
Fine Art BA and MFA
English BA
European Social Political Studies:听Dual Degree
LLB Law with a European Legal System
Medicine MBBS
Pharmacy MPharm听
Our language degrees听may also interview candidates听in order to establish a level of language ability.- For students applying听to Law, is there a minimum score for the LNAT?
香港六合彩中特网 Laws does not have a set minimum score required for the LNAT. Each year, 香港六合彩中特网 looks at the average MCT (multiple-choice test)听score of applicants from the previous year or years and sets a benchmark threshold score for the current admissions cycle. Applications from candidates who meet that threshold will then be considered by Admissions Tutors. In the academic year 2023/24, the average LNAT score of test results received by 香港六合彩中特网 was 24.3, and the average LNAT score of candidates who received an offer at 香港六合彩中特网 was 29.8. For contextual offers, the average LNAT score of candidates who received an offer at 香港六合彩中特网 was 28.
A high score in the LNAT is not a guarantee of an offer. Applications are considered on the basis of all the information provided (including the academic profile, personal statement, reference, LNAT score and essay).- How many places do you have for international students?
The UK government imposes an overseas cap on medical school places.听For our MBBS Medicine degree, we have 24 Overseas places. This is around听7% of our total听MBBS Medicine intake. No other 香港六合彩中特网 programmes have听an overseas student number cap.
- Do offer conditions vary for students with similar credentials?
Offers are typically made in line with the advertised entry requirements, which vary by programme and are listed in the online prospectus.
As such, it is possible for students with similar credentials to receive different offers if they are applying to different programmes.
- How often are students with predicted grades below the entry requirements made an offer?
Due to the high number of applications and level of competition, it is very unlikely that we will make an offer to a student with predicted grades below our entry requirements.
- Can students transfer to 香港六合彩中特网 from another institution?
All applicants studying at another higher education institution, including those who wish to transfer to a full-time degree programme at 香港六合彩中特网, whether to commence a new programme of study, or to enter directly into the second year of a degree programme, must apply through UCAS and not directly to 香港六合彩中特网.
Regardless of where applicants are applying from, they must submit their UCAS application by the dates published by UCAS. Second year transfers are relatively uncommon and most students are asked to enter Year 1 of our programme. Details of our programmes that consider second year entry are listed on our How to Apply page.听
- What type of work experience can be recommended for students interested in Medicine?
We recommend that prospective students read the to work experience.听
香港六合彩中特网 Medical School has never required clinical work experience or a specific duration of time spent completing work experience. Applicants should reflect on how their experiences, including work experience, have helped them to prepare them for a career in medicine.- What is the application to places ratio for your courses?
香港六合彩中特网 is a competitive institution and we receive a large number of applications for the number of places available. Please find more in our application-places ratio PDF听file below.

Post application听
- How can I communicate changes to an applicant鈥檚 predicted grades?
香港六合彩中特网 will only consider changes to predicted grades if there has been a genuine administrative error by the school/college when the original reference was completed.
听
In these circumstances we can only consider changes to predicted grades if we receive them before a decision is made on the application AND before the 29 January 2025 UCAS deadline. We will not consider revised predicted grades whether due to a school error or improved performance after a decision has been made on an application OR after the UCAS Equal Consideration deadline, even if a decision has not yet been made.Referees should contact Undergraduate Admissions via our听contact form听from an official school/college email address (e.g.听name@school.org) and include:
- an explanation of the error
- revised predicted grades
- applicant name
- applicant UCAS PID number
- the course the applicant has applied to
- My student has received their IB results and met all offer conditions. When will 香港六合彩中特网 confirm their place?
Our Admissions Team will process IB results as soon as they are received by 香港六合彩中特网. They will update offers on UCAS Track where offer conditions have been fully met.
If a student requires a visa to study in the UK, 香港六合彩中特网 will aim to issue the CAS within 5 to 10 working days. The student must meet the following conditions:听
- Status was updated to Unconditional Firm
- The student has completed the visa task on the applicant portal
Please see the guidance on our CAS webpage.听
- My student has received their IB results but not met their offer conditions. When will they receive a decision from 香港六合彩中特网?
Decisions may be made soon after the IB results are released, where students have narrowly missed their grades.
However, in most cases we will need听to wait until A level results are available on 15 August 2024. That's when the Admissions team knows how many students have met their conditions. This will determine if places for near-miss offer holders can be confirmed. If a student meets or exceeds their offer conditions in full as a result of a remark or appeal, they should contact us.
Revised grades should come through to us from UCAS. We need to have received official confirmation of the new grade(s) from the awarding body by 31 August 2024.
We will not consider informal submissions from individuals or schools.
- When can my student expect a decision from 香港六合彩中特网?
We do consider applications as quickly as we can. Our degree programmes attract a large number of well qualified applicants. This means听it may be some time before final decisions are made.
It is quite usual for some applicants to hear sooner than others. If a student doesn鈥檛 get a quick response from us it doesn't mean that an application will be unsuccessful.
The majority of programs at 香港六合彩中特网 use a 'semi-gathered field.' This means the admissions selector will make a decision听when they have enough similar applications. There will be several such 'fields' each year between September and April.
