Dear Usman Malik,
Re: Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 – Request for Information
Thank you for your email which was received by the University on 22 September 2022 at 03:11
hours, requesting the following:
I am looking to apply to Dentistry this year and I was hoping you could provide the
following information:
•UCAT cut-off score for RUK students for the 2021/22 cycle.
• The amount of RUK students interviews for the 2021/22 cycle.
University’s Response
I am looking to apply to Dentistry this year and I was hoping you could provide the
following information:
As a result of Covid, the Scottish Government mandated an additional training year for all
students on the Undergraduate BDS Dentistry programme. As a result, there was no 2021
entry and the 2022 intake was split over 2 separate admissions cycles (AY 2020/21 and AY
2021/22).
•UCAT cut-off score for RUK students for the 2021/22 cycle: 2690
•
The amount of RUK students interviews for the 2021/22 cycle: 36
