I don't think so.
I believe it depends on the income he/she gets.

I definitely hit 2 of the 6 criteria and the area is the one I'm unsure on so need to double check that. Thanks

You can enter your postcode in the multiple deprivation index and it shows you the % deprivation. I believe if is below 20% then you are eligible (im not 100% on this, check with @Neostigmine). However it is best to call and ask.

Actually, it depends on the university.
My postcode was eligible for this programme but not Nottinghams medicine programme so you will have to call.

This might sound like a silly question but.. Is extra consideration given to those who meet more than 3 of the criteria? So if I only meet 3 but someone else meets like 5 do they have a better chance at getting in?

Is the postcode the one you sent on UCAS? Or can you use a previous one?

Nope. Everyone is reviewed equally as long as they meet 3 of the requirements :smile:

It has to be the one you stated on UCAS. I emailed their admissions and the lady checked to see if my postcode was eligible.I'd suggest to do this as some universities use different tools to assess postcodes so best to be sure!

Do they consider household income/parent occupation as a criteria or just as 'sub' criteria?
