Medical Aspirations

Without any experience of university in your family to draw upon, applying to study medicine can be daunting. Finding out more about medical careers can be difficult if you don't know people that are already doctors. Medical Aspirations supports year 12 students on their path to studying medicine through the following FREE activities: 

• A 3 day, 2 night residential in the February half-term
• Ongoing support with applying to study medicine, including sessions on UKCAT tests, mock interviews and writing a personal statement.
• A guaranteed interview to study medicine at UEA if you attend the Medical Aspirations residential.
• The chance to receive a scholarship to study Medicine at UEA, worth up to £37,000.
• Access to current UEA medical students
