Newcastle University Applicant Thread 2026

Hi! I’ve just received an offer for Law 2026 entry at Newcastle, Has anyone else received offers and how likely are we to get in if we are say 1 grade under the required AAA?

Hi @izzycookes
If, when your A Level results are released, you do not quite meet your offer conditions, we will consider you a ‘near-miss’ applicant. In this scenario, all applicants who met their offer conditions would receive their place. For any places we have left over, we will reconsider all ‘near-miss’ applicants and look to place the most promising applicants.
‘Near-miss’ applicants are considered for any remaining places on their course during a process called Confirmation, which takes before A Level Results Day. When applicants log onto UCAS Hub on A Level Results Day, they will know if they have been accepted onto the course that they applied for, even if they were considered as a ‘near-miss’ applicant.

Hi , I am aware the first batch of interview invites got send for medicine undergrad, can you share how many students you have send interviews to in just the first batch ? And Approximately how long is the difference between the batches ( i.e do you send interviews every 2 weeks ? 3 weeks ? )
I thought my stats were quite strong but I haven't recieved any interviews so a bit stressed now :/

For PARTNERS my application is currently waiting for a referee review, by what date do I need to have it reviewed? Is it the Jan 21st deadline or is there a later one for referees?

Hi, may I ask when would Newcastle send interview invitations/rejections to overseas students apply Medicine. I am aware that some home students have already received interview and I am quite nervous about whether my UCAT score overpass the cut-off line.

Hi @wmhwu,
Applications from applicants classed as international for fees purposes will be processed separately from home students so the interview invitations will go out separately too.
We expect that these interviews will happen in late January/early February. They will be conducted by a panel of two interviewers either on campus or by video conference if this is more convenient.
