Do all universities interview students?

as in when you apply to 5 uni's, do they all have to interview you even if you get good grades?The thing with me is I'm usually fine, but can get nervous.

Nope. Hardly any do. It all depends on the course you apply for.

Most interview for Medicine, with a few notable exceptions. Then aside from Medicine, Oxbridge (for all courses), UCL and Imperial College (for most)... And then some others for only some courses (e.g. Modern Languages).

Depends on the course, certain ones like Medicine require an interview at most of the universities.

Depends on the course. I only had interviews for graphics, and none for sociology.

aside from oxbridge, which nearly always interview, are there any other courses at other unis that you could be interviewed for? Anyone have any ideas?

Also quite a few social work courses do. And then some courses which aren't offered everywhere for A-level, for instance Southampton interview for Philosophy.

Oh, and UCL interview for most (if not all) courses.

With art courses you generally need to go present your portfolio. There's also the courses and Unis already mentioned. However as a general rule Unis don't interview.
