HPAT Ulster 2012

Does anyone happen to know the cutoff for acceptance for any of the programmes requiring the HPAT this year? Or last year?

I heard that Speech and Language is usually about the 96th percentile - I got in the 97th so I'm really hoping for an offer!!

I know they only have 30 places on the course, so that makes the requirements higher. Physio and OT are much lower, I think. And I've heard of people getting into radiography with marks in the 50s.

Second week of April? Hmm. Guess I can stop logging into Track for a while then! Did you guys apply anywhere else? I applied also to Robert Gordon Uni in Aberdeen, and had an interview on 12 March. Still awaiting a decision from them as well as Ulster.

yeah, someone heard it from ulster and wrote it on another thread. i kept logging on to track too until i read that! i just applied to ulster because i've studied away from home before. what courses did you apply to?

I'm hoping this "second week of April" thing turns out to be a mistake! I've only applied for SLC at Ulster because I've already done a degree in English, which means I won't get a student loan, and will therefore be too poor to live away from home.

Ive heard this 2nd week of April thing a few times but it says on the Hpat results "You should receive a letter from UCAS advising whether or not you have received an offer from the University at around the same time as notification of your HPAT-Ulster scores" so lets hope it'll be sooner lol :P

well my actual Hpat score was 65 so I guess all the scores are realllyy close together. I have offers from other places but I only really want to go to uu. I wish they'd hurry up and make offers!

I scored in the 100th percentile. Hoping I get an offer for diagnostic and/or therapeutic radiography at UU. I'm also still waiting to hear from Robert Gordon Uni in Aberdeen on diagnostic radiography - keep thinking "any day now!"

That scares me....oh well i guess thats me out haha :P Well done though :smile:

I was pretty sure we'd hear today but no one seems to have heard yet :frown:

Well I know they take a lot of other things into consideration, not just the HPAT scores, so who knows? It's not always the highest scorers who get the places, I'm sure. Best of luck to *everyone* trying for a place. :smile:

I applied to both diagnostic and therapeutic radiography. I'd love to do either of them, but I really want to do radionuclide imagining. What about you?
