Introduction

If you are studying at another UK or Irish Medical, Dental or Veterinary school, you can apply to join Imperial College London for one year to join our School's integrated BSc programme. There are many advantages to the intercalated BSc programme:

• World class experience - Students are exposed to research at the cutting edge of the discipline studied
• Teaching and project supervision - Delivered by world leaders in biomedical research
• Opportunities to publish - Many students have obtained publications as a result of their BSc project and some have gone on to present their research at conferences

Selection process

Selection is based on three supporting documents of equal weighting:

• Academic transcript covering your marks (from university) up to and including the 2021-22 academic year. There is no official cut-off for academic performance but students who are accepted onto our courses are generally on track to achieve a 2.1 or higher.
• One academic reference from a member of staff at your university. You will be asked to provide the contact details of your referee in your application form. Imperial will then email your referee  to request a reference. It is your responsibility to make sure your referee submits your reference by the application deadline (16.00pm on Friday 3 March 2023).
• A personal statement explaining why you have chosen to apply for a particular BSc, why you think you should be selected for it, how the BSc relates to your interests in medical science and future career goals.

Second round of applications
Applicants who are not offered a place on the BSc to which they initially apply or are placed on the waiting list for that course, will be given the opportunity to apply for any of our intercalated BSc courses with spaces remaining.
