Hi good luck with your application too. I didn't know that they don't make Interviews, I was preparing for it at the moment just in case because I know that the other universities do😮 So they will only send offers?

I applied for dentistry and dental hygiene and therapy and only GCU for Optometry. I'm an EU student, I'm living in Scotland since 2020.

Dentistry is very competitive I've heard, but good luck with optometry and dental hygiene
