UCAT for radiology/midwifery/optometry

hi,
i wanted to study one of three degrees, radiology/midwifery/ optometry, and i was wondering which ones require me to do the UCAT or any other Entrance Exam?

I assume you mean radiography not radiology? If you do actually mean radiology, then a radiologist is a medical specialist for which you would need to study medicine (and sit the UCAT exam).

But as the above poster has said, there aren't entrance exams for radiography, midwifery, optometry, etc.

I don't understand the question.

If you mean when do courses start, it will be September/October time.

If you are asking if you have to apply early for healthcare courses, then no - you will need to apply by the equal consideration deadline in January 2024.
