Application process

Many applicants find the application forms, tests and interviews required when applying for undergraduate dentistry daunting. This section explains how to apply for our dentistry courses and how we assess each part of your application.

Remember, the admissions tutors want to get the best students just as much as you want to go to the best university, so make sure you let them know how good you are!

All applications for 2022 entry or those applying for deferred entry to our A206 (five-year Dentistry BDS) or A204 (six-year Dentistry BDS with a Foundation Year) courses must be submitted through UCAS by 15 October 2021 at 18:00 (UK time).

It is not possible to consider late applications. Receipt of applications to A204 and A206 will be acknowledged by the University's Central Admissions Office.

You should read through these pages carefully before you submit your application. If you have any questions that aren't answered on these pages, please contact us by emailing ug.dentistry@manchester.ac.uk.
