Hi,
I’ve applied to Essex Uni (Southend and Colchester) to study Oral Health Science.
Has anyone heard back from them/been offered an interview. I sent my application mid December.
Just wanted to try and get an idea of how long they take to respond/offer an interview.
Thanks🦷😁🫶🏻
Hi, i got an offer for an alternative course, they didn’t give too much reason behind this. Even though I’m great full for the offer, the lack of feedback wasn’t great. I also found it a bit concerning that oral health science for university of Essex isn’t currently on ucas anymore.

Did you get an interview for the course at all?

I think it’s happened to quite a few people with little to no explanation, as it’s not on ucas anymore I’m wondering if the course has been scrapped? I think I’m going to get on clearing to apply for another university if I don’t get the outcome I want.

Hey,
Sorry to hear that.
I had an email today to say I have been offered an interview but they are just waiting on more dates to be realised before I can book it x

Yeah I have heard! I also applied to Plymouth to do a foundation year and then the 3 year oral science course and I was offered an interview, may be worth trying them! Xx

Hey,
Ahh thank you,
I’ve got mine on the 18th.
I think when I booked it there was 2 other dates to choose from, one the week before and one more the same week as mine. So maybe the last batch. Good luck too 🤞🏻 Keep me updated when you hear back and I will too x

You’re welcome.
The wait is a killer isn’t it.
I applied around mid Jan.
I’ve applied to the course a few times now, last year I made it to the waiting list so really hoping I get it this year. Have you applied before? xx

Aww I’m sure you will. They should see how determined you are!!
Stay positive, we’ve got this😁

Hey, can I ask you whether you have done an access course or anything? As I applied with GCSE’s, qualified dental nurse but no access course or A levels in a science related subject and was turned away. Good luck with the interview!

Hey I’m in the same boat as you, I’ve applied after qualifying as a dental nurse but got offered an interview somehow, how long have u been nursing for? If I don’t get in I’m gonna start an access course as I think it’s the only option

Yeah I applied in January and I had my interview a week ago xx

Hey:smile:)
How did u find the interview? How long do they usually take and are the questions relatively normal, as I’ve seen people talking about MMI questions and role play questions but wondered if that’s for dentistry or also hygiene?xx
