Neuroscience at uni

2

I am applying to study neuroscience at the following unis: Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee, and St Andrews. The course name is ‘Neuroscience’ whereas in Aberdeen uni it’s ’Neuroscience with Psychology’. So would I need to adjust my personal statement for Aberdeen uni and include things related to psychology too? Or could I just use the same personal statement that I will submit to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee and St Andrews?

Might want to ask them.
I think it's safe to add a bit of Psychology

Hi, this is the University of Aberdeen rep account. A personal statement focusing just on Neuroscience should be perfectly fine, but if you would like then you can send a secondary personal statement which incorporates some mentions of Psychology to us directly. Once you have applied if you email it to [email protected] along with details of your application (UCAS ID, course, date of application) and our admissions team will be able to consider it as part of your application. I hope that helps and let us know if you have any more questions!
