We welcome applications from those taking Access qualifications if you have not previously studied at University. We do not accept Access courses to top-up A-level grades that do not meet the normal entry requirements at the first attempt. We also expect applicants to have had at least 3 years out of education prior to starting the Access course. If you have spent 3 or more years out of education but have previously studied A-levels or other post-16 qualifications you must contact us before applying in order to determine the suitability of an application. The Access course must be science based and you must have 60 credits at Level 3 with a minimum of 45 credits in graded Level 3 modules, which must include 30 credits at Distinction and 15 credits at Merit. A minimum of 15 credits are required in Biology. For applicants whose status has been confirmed as WP+, WP++ using the University's Contextual Data Eligibility tool, or a MAP applicant your Access course must be science-based and you must have 60 credits overall, with a minimum of 45 credits in graded Level 3 modules, with 15 credits at Distinction and 30 credits at Merit.

The School of Medical Sciences requires evidence of a broad programme of study. Applicants will need to present with three A Levels plus 'some other study/activity'.

We require two Advanced Highers at grades BB, one of which must be Biology.

We require at least five GCSEs at grade C (4). English Language, Mathematics and either two sciences, Dual Award Science or Core and Additional Science are required at a minimum grade C. We permit GCSE resits. If you are resitting any GCSEs at the point of application, we require you to list it as a pending qualification on your UCAS form. We do not currently accept short courses; however, Level 2 BTEC qualifications are acceptable (at distinction grade or above) in lieu of one GCSE. If you are offering an international equivalent to GCSE and this is not listed on our international entry requirements page, please contact the School of Medical Sciences Admissions Office to check the suitability of the qualification. Due to the phased introduction of GCSE reform in England, we will accept a mixture of GCSE grading scales. We can confirm our position in terms of equivalencies: A* = 8 A = 7 B = 6 C = 4

The University recognises the benefits of the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and the opportunities it provides for applicants to develop independent study and research skills. Although the Extended Project will not be included in the conditions of your offer, we strongly encourage you to provide information about the EPQ in your personal statement and at interview. A number of our academic Schools may also choose to take your performance in the EPQ into account should places be available in August for applicants who narrowly miss the entry grades for their chosen course.

A,A,B

Our standard A-level offer is AAB to include Biology. NVQ Level 3 Oral Health Care (Dental Nursing) is acceptable in lieu of one A-level; however, Biology and one other A-Level is still required at least at grade B. You must also meet the GCSE requirements. Practical skills are a crucial part of science education and therefore there will be a requirement to pass the practical element of any science A Level taken. Where applicants are applying for science and related degrees, this is likely to be made explicit in the offers you will receive. Our Typical Contextual Offer: BBB (including Biology).

The University welcomes and recognises the value of the Advanced Welsh Baccalaureate and usually requires two A Levels or equivalent to be included within this. The minimum grade required will normally be the same as the lowest grade listed in the A-Level entry requirements. Students will be required to have achieved Grade B alongside Biology and one other A-level subject at Grades AB.
