Aston Medicine: Entry Requirements & UCAT Cutoff (2027 Entry)

Offer: A*AA including Chemistry and Biology (with practical passes) — the A* must be in Biology or Chemistry; any third subject except General Studies and Critical Thinking. Predicted grades aren't used at any stage of selection. ^[6]

Taking more than three A-Levels? Chemistry, Biology and your next best grade are the ones considered. ^[7]

Grade B/6 minimum in English Language, Maths, Chemistry and Biology (or Double Science). ^[17]

At least six GCSEs at grade B/6 or above. ^[17]

A lower GCSE English Language grade can be offset by IELTS 7.0 overall with 7.0 in every section. ^[18]

No UCAT cut-off score — UCAT total is a ranking input rather than a threshold.

SJT band is not used in shortlisting at Aston. ^[19]

UCAT (or UCATSEN) must be sat in the year of application — the summer/early autumn before the course starts. ^[20]

Offer: 37 points with 7,6,6 at Higher Level including Chemistry and Biology — one of the two at HL grade 7. Predicted grades aren't used. ^[8]

A range of UK-based medical Foundation Programmes may be considered — contact the admissions team for the accepted list. ^[13]

T Levels are not accepted for the MBChB programme. ^[14]

Graduates: 2:1 honours in any discipline (UK ENIC-approved university) plus ABB at A-Level including Chemistry and Biology with either at grade A, and the standard GCSE requirements. Apply in the final year of your degree — predicted degree class is considered. No accelerated route: graduates complete the full five years. ^[15]

Current undergraduates not in the final year of their degree are not considered. ^[16]

Resits are considered (with or without repeating a year), but the full qualification profile must be completed within three academic years — i.e. one resit year only. ^[5]

Applicants who have previously studied or withdrawn from a medical degree are not accepted. ^[21]

Reapplication is allowed — unless a previous Aston MMI was failed for one or more red flags. ^[22]

Transfers are not accepted — applicants cannot transfer in from a medical or non-medical degree at another university. ^[23]

Having withdrawn from any degree (medical or not, in the UK or abroad) also rules you out. ^[24]
