University of Buckingham Medicine 2021 Entry

Original post by Docdoolittle500

They naturally want the best candidates for the course so they continue interviewing. Once they get a certain quota they request the deposit. Naturally a lot will reject the offers because of the very high costs and then they resort to those on the waiting list

So there's still a 70% chance of getting offered a place after later interviews ?

Is the Jan start the same for a 2022 entry? Did it change because of Corona?

Yes, the medicine course at this uni always starts in January. Corona had no effect.

Its the same for 2022, since its a private school and the course is 4.5 years, they start earlier. I think you can go in at September though, I believe there's an option

There isn’t an option to start the medicine course in September. They have September or January options for some other courses.

And Buckingham actually start later (so January 2021 instead of September 2020). We graduate at the same time as those that started standard 5 year courses in September 2020 at other unis.

I’m declining the offer as the fees are ridiculously high- in fact it’s frightening.
The interview was good experience for the real thing next year at a traditional med school in the uk

Hi! I am an offer holder and have been following this thread for months now :smile:

. I just wanted to know if any of international applicants are not actually going to Buckingham for a certain amount of time till the ongoing situation normalises a bit? Well, if I decide to not go to Buckingham in January can I just study virtually from home? This would save me a lot on accommodation. Any applicants who are doing this or think if it is ideal in this current scenario?

I have asked this because, even if we are there in Buckingham, there are no classes in person for the time being (am I correct?) and they will be conducting online classes and eventually we'll be doing everything from our rooms, so I was just wondering why not just study from our own respective countries or cities?
