Biomedical sciences unsuccessful applicants

You should only apply to one of our biomedical programmes, as they all have a common structure in Years 1 and 2.  

If you apply for multiple degrees within biomedical sciences, we can only take one application forward for consideration and will process the remaining applications as unsuccessful.  

If you also applied to a professional programme, it's likely that you made this the main focus of your personal statement rather than biomedical sciences. 

This means that your personal statement was not as competitive as people who had biomedical sciences as their main subject of choice. 

Your application may have been unsuccessful because you are taking or have taken resits. 

Resitting exams can put your application at a disadvantage due to the number of applications we receive from students who have achieved or are predicted to achieve our required grades at the first attempt. 

If there is strong competition for places, we may not be able to offer you a place if you are taking resits.  

If you have experienced serious disruption to your studies, your school must confirm this within your academic reference, and we will take this into account when assessing your resit grades.
