Hi there! Great to hear you're considering studying at Plymouth! 🙂

I'm a current student here and, although I study a different course, I'm more than happy to answer any questions you might have about the university, campus, or city, as well as point you in the right direction for more specialist queries too!

If you haven't already, I'd also recommend visiting for an open day as this is the best chance to see the campus and facilities, hear from students and staff, as well as get a feel for the area. You can register via this link to secure your space!

Best of luck with your applications! 🙌

Hi @D1TINY,

It's great to hear that you are considering studying with us. You can find more information about our School of Medicine, entry requirements for our various courses, how to apply and much more. You can find this here.

I studied a creative course but more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I would suggest attending an open day with us. Our next one is on Saturday 22nd November. These are great to get a feel for the university, speak to admissions and current students and lecturers to name a few. Find out more or book your place here.

I would also recommend emailing our enquires team if you have any admission questions. Our friendly team will be able to go through your options and answer any questions you may have. You can get in touch with them via [email protected] or by giving them a call on 44 (0)1772 892400 (Option 1).

Best wishes and do let me know if you have any further questions 🙂

Hi there! It’s great to know you’re considering ARU!

I’m a third year student here, and although I don’t study a medicine related degree, I’ve been told great things about the courses in that field! If you do apply to this university, one big regional advantage is proximity to Addenbrooke’s Hospital, which is regarded as one of the UK’s leading teaching hospitals.

I also recommend participating in an open day. You’ll get to explore the campus and learn more about the experience students gain through placements in top hospitals! It’s also a great chance to meet current students, speak to lecturers, and see what life at ARU is really like!

If you have any more questions about student life, the campus, or the city, drop them in the replies down below! I’m also more than happy to connect you with our staff if you’d like to find out more about the course. They can give you detailed insights on the student experience and the degree.

Good luck on your applications!
