I have a degree already – are there any graduate entry programmes available?
Yes. Graduate entry programmes (usually four year medical courses) are offered by some UK medical schools and universities. The graduate entry courses offered by recognised UK medical schools are approved by the Council of the GMC. The degree awarded at the end of the course will be the same as all other primary medical qualifications leading to GMC registration and the licence to practise, granted in the UK. To achieve this, students will have to demonstrate they meet the same curricular outcomes, to the same standards as students completing more traditional degree courses. As the holders of a UK primary medical qualification, these doctors would have the same career prospects as other UK medical graduates For details of these courses and entry requirements please contact the medical schools or university directly, or see The Medical Schools Council website www.medschools.ac.uk (opens in new window) .
