Enhanced Support Dentistry Programme
Dear King's College London,
I am writing this request as on the KcL website it states that the ESD programme is only available for those from a non selective state school within the London Borough. However, I found a pdf document which discusses the requirements and states that anybody across the UK can be eligible.
Therefore I was wondering whether I could get a clarification as to what the exact requirements for the programme are as the information online contradicts itself.
Yours faithfully,
Areej

ESDP Eligibility Information
2018 Entry
For 2018 entry, applicants attending all non-selective state schools*, as determined by the
UK Government’s Department for Education (DfE), are eligible to apply for the ESDP. This
means there is no longer a published list of schools to consult.
Applicants must have been attending a non-selective state school since the age of 11, and
will need to list all the schools they have attended since the age of 11 on their UCAS
application.
Candidates attending Grammar Schools are not eligible to apply for the ESDP, and should
apply to the standard Dentistry programme.
Please refer to the Entry Requirements and Course Detail sections for further information on
the requirements and eligibility criteria.
*Non-selective state schools are defined as schools where candidates are not required to
complete an entry exam in order to compete for a place at the school.
State schools are funded by the UK Government and do not charge fees. This includes
community schools, free schools, and academies.
I hope that’s better and you’re able to answer my enquiry now.
Yours sincerely,
Ari

Therefore, to ensure you have the most up to date information I would review the ESDP course page, linked below, specifically the entry requirements tab: https://www.kcl.ac.uk/study/undergraduat...
