Are you guaranteed to get onto pharmacy or do you have to get a certain grade or percentage by the end of the year

Hiya

You need to get 70% to progress onto the MPharm course from the health foundation year.

Hey, if you go onto the Keele university website, under health foundation year, they provide you with 'entry requirements' and 'how to apply'. You write your personal statement based on what you want to progress onto, you may then be given a interview, if you are successful you will recieve either a conditional or unconditional offer :smile:

Hi, they may still let you in even if you miss the grades but this is not certain, just what I've come across.

Yep DBS check, health questionaire and a whole bunch of other documents. They'll all be sent to you from Keele closer to 24th Sep. Don't stress you'll be all prepared to join the course by the time you move in :smile:

I remember the feeling! My to-do list seemed so big and moving in day too close. In the end I didn't need to worry, the documents were sent to me eventually and everything got done in good time. Some things you'll do in the first few days of arriving too.
