Nope! Application are still open I think
Hi everyone,

I have both EU and non-EU nationalities, so I believe I 'can choose' to apply as EU or non-EU (I would only apply as an international if I can get a scholarship back in my home country).
I just wanted to ask how competitive and how hard is it to get in or at least to be offered an interview (considering my predicted A-level grades are AAAAB- B in Chemistry).

Any opinion is appreciated, thanks.

rafael, as an international applicant, your predicted would be definitely sufficient. However, I believe that eu applicants require a much higher grade- AAAAA, with 1/5 of the price though.

if this is a safe option, go for non-eu

Hello everyone,

I need a little help. I would like to know if there are any structures for personal statement and reference letter? It does not say anywhere as far as what I have been looking at.

Also, I am currently taking the IB. I am not sure if I need to take the IELTS or not? I actually saw a website that you don't need to. But in case if it is required, what is the requirement for IELTS?

Thanks

Nothing at all. I think I would give them a ring if there's still no news by feb. When did the people last year get interviews?

Well tbh, their deadline is the 1st of Feb, and then give them a few weeks after that, and only then would they start sending us their decisions. Hopefully it's not too late though.

I applied to RCSI last year and I received an invitation on the 12th of March last year and so did my friends. :smile:

The interview I had last year was a video interview where they gave me a login information and then they gave you questions and then you record yourself within time limits. There were no interviewers which was a pretty strange way to conduct an interview I would say. I am not sure about this year though.
