Has anyone applied to dental school in Australia as someone from the UK? Please help!

Hi, so I’m currently a Year 13 student due to sit my A level exams in the summer. I am planning to apply for dentistry in Australia but am very confused about when I’m supposed to apply. Do I apply before or after my A level results are out? And is it okay to apply before I sit the UCAT (ANZ)?
If you know anything about this please let me know, I’d really appreciate it! :smile:

If you don’t mind me asking, would that not be insanely expensive??? Surely you’d be better off just going to one in the UK.

Hi! The reason I’m looking to apply in Australia is because they typically have lower A level requirements than the UK. I need AAA to study dentistry in the UK and I’m not sure whether I’ll be able to get those results! Also Australia seems like a nice country to study in overall. It will be expensive but going abroad might become my only pathway to study dentistry.

Is paying 500k asd not including maintenance really worth it? If you don’t get AAA this summer couldn’t u resit a levels? If u can afford it and u want to by all means go for it, I myself was considering med in aus, but student debt is tricky
