Hi there,

Here is Coventry's page talking prospective students through clearing - I believe that you will be able to apply for diagnostic radiography foundation course through clearing as on the clearing page there is a link to an 'A-Z course list' which does list the diagnostic radiography foundation course.

Hi there,

When looking at the A-Z courses there isn't a search bar for you to type in - you need to select the course area. For radiography that would be ' Nursing, Midwifery and Healthcare' in that section there is a breakdown.

When i look through the courses i can see 'Diagnostic Radiography available' - not sure if this specific link below will work but if you follow my directions above you should find it also.

However, it will depend on which intake you are looking for, it is available for clearing but seems to be marked 'September 2026' not the 25 intake.

Hope this helps

Hi thank you for replying yes but for me it wasn`t under nursing it was just diagnostic radiography it does say for 2026 so i thought it wouldn`t be available for clearing also does that mean you guys dont offer a foundation year for it as it doesnt say so on the course . also if i got offered an alternative course after applying for radiography there then could i apply again through clearing if its available or would there be no point in trying?

Hi there,

I have had a look on Coventry's website around their foundation years and it looks as though they do not offer a foundation year for diagnostic radiography.
https://www.coventry.ac.uk/cuc/study/courses-designed-to-suit-you/foundation-years/

However, there are foundation degrees in that area you could look into and then transfer to your chosen course on completion - if the course is relevant the website says you can pick a slightly different one than you studied.

Have a browse of the alternate courses and you can always contact the uni admin team f you aren't sure if it is relevant enough.
