physician associate undergraduate course

hi i just wanted to ask how many people apply to the undergraduate physician associate course and how many people actually get selected and accepted. I also wanted to ask what they base the application off of? Is it more the interview or is it personal statement or does both get equally looked at?

Hi @Jvyb,

Please could you confirm it's our BSc (Hons) Medical Sciences (with Foundation Year) programme you are looking to apply for?

For advice and guidance on your student loans, I'd recommend you reach out to our student fees and funding team. You can email the team at [email protected] for support.

That means you only have 25 places every year.

Hi @Jvyb

Some of our courses re subject to change regarding places as this is a often linked to Government announcements and how in demand roles like Physician Associates are within the NHS workforce. So as of right now there are 25 places available for UK students but this isn't guaranteed every year of entry. Hope this helps clarify.
