If you are NOT a graduate applicant, you have to have a humanities subject or you get rejected..sucks.

does that include a language at all? :P

Have any UK applicants heard anything back yet? Or do you know when we expect to receive a decision? Thanks.

Hey Aysha, Just wondering if you could give me as much info about applying to Malta, as I will be this year :smile:

currently a year 12. Also, how hard is the entrance test or is it just AS Biology. Thanks in advance :smile:

I know little about the application process.

My dad has just sorted out his citizenship (half Maltese). I really wished I'd put off uni a year, sorted mine out then gone to University over there, have a lot of family out there. Love Malta :smile:

Will you be applying when you're in year 13 or do you mean now? You need to have 3 A-Levels so will have to apply next year.
I didn't do a test as I have A-levels, only intl applicants and graduates do the test or A-level applicants who don't meet the grade requirements.
Hope this helps :smile:

So is it 100% that you need an as level in a language and an as level in a humanatarian subject?

Would appreciate if I cuold get a response.

also if I am in year 12 now and took english as and like history as levels during year 13 would I be able to enter the university immediately after year 13 without a gap year?

Has anyone received a reply of interview or rejection after their entrance exams in biology and chemistry last week, or does anyone know when we will get the results

No idea. Horrible I say. How are you coping?

Hey,
I was just wondering if you could tell me as much about the course as you know.
I'm a year 12 student, who would like to apply. What are the entry requirements? Do we all have to take an entrance test? I'm from the UK.
Lastly, can I apply this year or does it have to be in a gap year after 13?
Your help would be greatly appreciated ;D

I phoned the international office who said they have not had any marks back from the medical faculty, and then when I phoned them they said they needed to have a exam board meeting to ratify the results, for which they had no date, but were referring to a timeline of one to two weeks. so feel like in limbo land really, maybe you could phone (go thru the main switchboard) early next week and ask the medical faculty of when they are having the exam board meeting?
On the test day the staff had mentioned that we would get the results within a week as the candidates who were going to get interviewed on 27th June would need to book their flights?

Hi there.

I cannot remember them saying this on the exam day. Just seemed very distant. Was this information. You found out individually?

How do you feel about all of the short notice and lack of consistency with regards to admissions?

Also did you not find that there were several typos and mistakes in the papers?

Yes you can apply in year 13, but double check with the uni

hi there, i missed the April deadline but when i rang up, the lady told me that you can apply until mid June as long as you have the following...

Biology A2
Chemistry A2
humanities or a language to AS or A2
are fluent in English
go through British exam boards such as AQA, OCR, Edexcel etc...

so when you apply, you apply as a home student, not an international, because British A levels are classed as home qualifications.

its all very complicated and i dont really understand, i just want to know if im in or not. i didnt have to do the entrance exam and i dont have to be interviewed, so am i in? i just dont know :frown:

she asked if i had a humanities or language and i said i did History to AS and English Language, biology and chemistry to A2 and she said that was fine. i doubt english is classed as a language so you probs only need one of them. the best thing to do is ring and ask, i found admissions on the phone to be very helpful

just wish i knew what was going on, i was asked to scan and send my documents which i was told i would only be asked for if i got offered a place. but when i log on to the website it still says my application is being processed, plus i don't need interview or entrance exam because im predicted As in biology and chemistry. so im hoping that means im in... :/
