Course Description
Want to start your journey to become a doctor, but don't meet the traditional entry requirements?
Depending on your circumstances, our Medicine with a Foundation Year course could be your route to achieving your ambitions.

You'll be taught by experienced teachers in a medical school with 50 years' experience training doctors and an excellent reputation for teaching and research.
