Bristol 2026 Dentistry applicants

Has anyone applied to Bristol?
I did and weirdly on the applicant portal, it actually asked me to input my UCAT details
But I thought unis get UCAT results directly from Pearson. Strange 🤷
Was it the same for any of you??

Unis do get the results from Pearson, but this is only if applicants have listed their Uni choices on their UCAT account. Some don't - or may have subsequently changed their minds about where they are applying - so this is just a double-check device from Bristol so that if your results are 'missing' they can still download them.

Ok, I was over-thinking everything as usual 😆
Good luck to you too. Where else you applied?

My understanding is UCAT passes results to universities some time after the application deadline have passed. The data matching process can introduce addation delays etc.

Universities need to calculate their cut offs etc based on the UCAT results of this year applications before they can plan how they will process applications.
