Durham Medical School Applicants 2012

Hey!! Any other graduates been offered a place in the undergrad program??? I hope I'm not the only oldy mouldy in the class

I'm also a graduate! Apparently, Durham consists of 30-40% graduates/mature students - should be a good balance.

Have you, or any other graduates, received confirmation of the fees we will have to pay?? I rang the fees office to make sure it was £9000 but your ones manager was on lunch and she didn't have a clue... Now I'm slightly freaking out that its gonna be higher???

another oldies i dont think the tuition fees can go higher than £9000 except for international... with the fees increase, lets hope there are still that many grad

Yeah, I'm almost certain (and hope) that we're gonna be charged the same as undergraduates.

We are, good old Helen put me out of my misery there earlier delighted there are other grads, do we have a Facebook page?? Might be a good idea to set one up!! Il do it if there isn't one already!! Great way to meet our new class... How exciting!!

Agd created one for us (thanks again agd) just search for durham medicine freshers 2012

Does anybody know what the cost of books will be the first year?

The books are pretty expensive (anywhere between 30-60 per book) and most of them you can get from the library, i bought a few before I came and one of them is pretty useless so it was a waste of money. You'll use grays alot so if you were to buy one before coming that would be the only one I would recommend, but I wouldnt say its important to really get any before coming. Like Blorcyn said, dont rush into anything

They'll send you a list, eventually. Just don't go crazy, I don't have any books and get all mine from the library and it's not been a problem yet. Most people seem to loan most with one or two exceptions - almost everyone seems to own a copy of Gray's anatomy (but a lot of people find they prefer Moore's so, again, don't rush).
