Heyy sis! 💕
I’m planning to apply for Optometry in 2026 Insha’Allah and I saw your post and thought I’d reach out!
Do you mind me asking how was the application process for Optom at UWE and what relevant work experiences or stuff you did to help your application? I’ve been looking into it and it seems like a nice uni 🫶
I’m sure you’ll meet other Muslim girls once it starts Insha’Allah and have a brilliant time 🤍Jzk

Heyyy, I got an offer for UWE for optom 2026. I had to make a video of myself and answer questions which they sent me and attach that into the questionnare that they sent. In the questionarre, they just ask questions about a time when you showed good leadership skills and a time when you made a mistake, what did you do, the rest of the questions are self explanatory. Their video is their form of an 'interview'. I already sat 2 A levels, but I need a B in Biology this year to get accepted. Ive been quite stressed out because I didnt know anyone else who has applied for this university or this course, but its so reassuring to see another muslim girl applying here, hope you get an offer. 😄
