Clearing Help!!!

Hi, do you know if there are any foundation courses? (UCLAN)

Hi,

Unfortunately there are no places available for 2019 entry in our MBBS Medicine degree. We do however offer a foundation course that might be of interest to you: BSc (Hons) Medical Sciences foundation entry:

This programme is a scientific degree that runs in the university's School of Medicine. The benefit of this is that you get additional support if you want to apply for UCLan's medicine course for 2020 entry including practice interviews etc.

On the foundation entry, dependent on your grades in first year you can potentially apply for the UCLan MBBS, Physician Associate Studies, Dental Hygiene and Dental Therapy, Pharmacy or Biomedical Sciences.

Please feel free to take a look at the course page linked above and if you have any further questions feel free to ask away.

Hi, I have accepted the offer for the Foundation Entry on the UCAS website however it states that the University needs to confirm this offer. I was wondering when would the university confirm this offer? I also wanted to know are there going to be any open days for the university before, I start my course.

I can't wait to start in September.

Hi congrats! We'll DM you because we'll need to get some further info to look into the status of your application. In regards to the Open Day, you can get a feel for our Preston City Campus by joining a student led campus tour throughout August, where dedicated staff and academics will be on hand to help you through Clearing and find the right course for you. No need to book, just turn up to our Students' Union on Fylde Road. See times and dates below:
• Thursday 15 August, 10am-6pm
• Friday 16 August, 10am-5pm
• Saturday 17 & Sunday 18 August, 10am-4pm
• Monday 19 - Friday 23 August, 10am-2pm
• Tuesday 27 - Friday 30 August, 10am-2pm

If you can't make these dates you can arrange to go on a campus tour on a later date.
Thanks, Euan

Thank You I will be attending City Campus Tour very soon.

Hey there!

UCLan offer a Medical Sciences Foundation Entry course - after the first year of this course there is the opportunity for students to transfer to the MBBS course but it is important to note that whilst there is the opportunity to apply for Medicine MBBS at UCLan after one year on the BSc Medical Science (Foundation Entry), this is not a guaranteed progression route and there is no guarantee of an interview for the MBBS. Application to MBBS is a very competitive process.

You can find out more about the course, including course requirements here https://www.uclan.ac.uk/courses/bsc-hons-medical-sciences-foundation-entry.php

Hope this helps

Hi! Thanks,

I have applied after getting a verbal offer so will be coming to Burnley campus this September!
I was wondering where I could find more information? i.e. example week timetable, what modules we study in 1st year and assessments?
Also how and when can we apply for funding?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I just got some REEEALLY bad grades (80 UCAS points) but I really want to get into medicine. I know it will be very difficult AND competitive but I would be grateful if anyone has any advice? Thanks.
