UCLan admissions for Vet Med

Hi!! I applied for Veterinary Medicine at UCLan and emailed the admissions team on 30/10 with some information that could affect how they assess my application (whether I get an interview). I received the automatic confirmation email, but I still haven’t had any proper reply.

I’ve heard that some applicants have already received interview invitations, so I’m worried that if they haven’t looked at the information I emailed, it might affect how they consider my application.

Has anyone else heard back from UCLan, and what should I do? Should I wait, or email them again?

Hi @Hihihihihihihi,

Thank you for your message and patience. Rest assured I will look into this for you. Can you please direct message us with the following details:
- Full name
- Application number (this usually begins with a G)
- Date of birth
- Course name

Once I have these, I will be able to help more and get this sorted for you. You can direct message us on this platform or @UniLancashire on Facebook, X or Instagram 🙂

My daughter applied September 8th. Some people checked and said all her information had been received. Then last Monday (11/17) she received an email that admissions had received her application (even though we already knew this as someone had checked on it over a month ago). I took it as a good sign that maybe things were moving but nope, here we sit a week later and still waiting. We are from America and just waiting (im)patiently. 🙂

I’ve heard people have had interview offers already, but I only got emailed the supplementary questionnaire last week. Is this normal?

I am not sure there is anything that can be done. Someone checked on it the beginning of October and was told that they would process the applications in the order they were received after they were done processing the January 2026 applications. When there was an email last week I thought maybe there was finally some movement but that was almost 2 weeks ago now. Just continuing to wait.

Hi @wakejul,

Thank you for your message and patience during this busy period. If your daughter would like an application update or any other support, she's free to message us at any point. I'm sure you have their details but in the meantime, if you'd like to speak with international admissions you can email them on [email protected] or give the team a call on +44 (0)1772 892 400 (Option 2)

Best of luck,
^Zac

No, I still haven’t heard anything but I feel like I haven’t been rejected if they’ve only just recently sent the questionnaire

Hi @chanster,

Thank you for your message and patience. Yes, you are correct, the short forms are relating to contextual data. These allow us to pick up any criteria which can be considered alongside the contextual data from UCAS. It isn't an additional step in shortlisting.

Hi,

I haven't received the questionnaire yet- is this something I need to follow up with? Does everyone get it at different times?

Thank you! :smile:

I also haven’t heard anything apart from to say thanks for your application. The portal isn’t showing my application either, so I’m really unsure. No idea when I’m going to hear, it seems like a long time but probably isn’t really. I haven’t heard anything though if that’s any help to feel like you’re not the only one!

Thank you!! That does make me feel better. I also can't see my application I think? I have the option to update my personal details but that's all I see.

I'm glad it isn't just me!! :smile:
