Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011Unfortunately yes, the deadline was on friday (15th October)(Original post by Sizzzla112)
Is is too late to apply through UCAS?
Edit: Just for this Oxford course, you can still apply for Biomedical Sciences at other institutions.Last edited by Alex-92; 18-10-2010 at 19:14. -

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011Yeah for Medicine, Vet. Medicine and all Oxbridge admissions it's the 15th October. Sorry you had to find out this way(Original post by Sizzzla112)
Ah shucks. Thanks. I thought uni's accepted late applications up until January.

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011They were actually projecting it to be undersubscribed the last time I spoke to someone there. The same thing happened a few years ago when they added a course ... I can't remember which.
It's possible that they might give a few offers out to people they 'reject' from other, similiar courses, such as Medicine and Biological Sciences if it is undersubscribed.
I think it'd be hard to turn Oxford down, even if you hadn't got into the EXACT course you wanted. -

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011I hope so! Well I have already got the grades, and I know I want to do it. One of the women on the open day said they could interview 120 applicants, providing they got that many!(Original post by TwilightKnight)

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011Best of luck to you. Their approach looks fascinating, and the tutorial system would make the learning very direct and concise. I just wish I could have applied for both(Original post by Alex-92)

. But then again, applying with a Medicine personal statement to any course at Oxbridge other than Medicine is a big no-no.

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011It just looks so epic, and to top it off a research project in the second year...(Original post by TwilightKnight)

Re: Oxford Biomedical Science Applicants 2011I'm only applying because my school put me in. If I get an offer (which I seriously doubt based on my appalling charisma and interview technique) then I'll take it, but it's a good thing I want to go to York(Original post by Eloades11)
