University of Edinburgh: UCAT and entry requirements
UCAT use, interviews and entry requirements for University of Edinburgh.
| UCAS code | A100 [2][1] |
|---|---|
| How UCAT is used | For 2027 entry the minimum total is 1850, except for Plus Flag applicants. Applicant decile points and SJT points are added to the academic score. [3] |
| Situational Judgement | Band 4 is rejected, including for widening access applicants. [3] |
| Interview | A half-day assessment day, at Edinburgh Medical School or online. [1] |
| Other selection requirements | Plus Flag applicants and UCAT bursary holders receive a 10% UCAT uplift. Flag applicants must meet the cut-off and receive a 5% uplift. [3] |
What this means for your UCAT prep
Keep SJT practice in your plan because Band 4 rules out an application, even with widening access eligibility. [3] The cognitive score is also ranked by applicant decile, so meeting the minimum is only one part of selection. [3]
