Personal statement

Applicants to the A100 and A101 programmes (including the OMFS route) will not routinely have their personal statements or academic references assessed as part of the decision to invite them to interview.

We do however reserve the right to use the information submitted to support academic selection when necessary and the information relevant to a personal statement is likely to be considered as part of the interview process.

Information in academic references may be used to support claims of extenuating circumstances but applicants will be required to declare these, and provide evidence, via our applicant online form.

Applicant online form

Applicants are invited to consider if they need to provide additional information via our School of Medicine: Applicant online form.

Please consult the relevant Departmental Supplement for the programme you are applying to.

Note that the majority of applicants are expected to have been affected by the COVID pandemic and this cannot be submitted as extenuating circumstances.

Interviews

The University of Liverpool’s School of Medicine admissions process is fully in line with the General Medical Council’s Selecting for Excellence Report (PDF) and Values Based Recruitment. Therefore, it is usual that no candidate will be made an offer without an interview.

For the E2025 admissions cycle, we expect to offer on-campus face-to-face Multiple Mini Interviews (MMIs) to home students and online MMIs for international students. The type of interview offered will be decided (on-campus/online) by the admissions team and home students should not expect an online interview to be made available to them.

Interviews are currently expected to run on weekdays from the 20 January 2025 to 7 February 2025 with the online interviews potentially scheduled for the 6^th and 7^th February 2025.

If invited to interview further details will be provided. This information may be subject to change.
