Swansea Medical School
Swansea. four-year graduate-entry MBBCh only.
Swansea Medical School is located in Swansea. The standard course is a four-year graduate-entry MBBCh only. Swansea is the only Welsh medical school that admits students through a graduate-entry-only route. The four-year MBBCh combines integrated systems-based teaching with rotations across Hywel Dda, Swansea Bay and Cwm Taf Morgannwg health boards.
Entry requirements, the weighting given to the UCAT, GAMSAT or other admissions tests, and the structure of the interview process all change from year to year. The single most reliable source for any prospective applicant is the medical school's own admissions page for the year of entry — the official link below. Comparative information across all UK medical schools is collated annually by the Medical Schools Council.

About this page
This page is one of a set of medical school and medical careers resources on chrispaton.org, replacing the category landings of New Media Medicine (newmediamedicine.com), an early digital health blog and UK medical school applications community I ran between 2004 and 2014. The original New Media Medicine forum threads — user-generated content from that community — are not republished here; this is original framing written to help current applicants find authoritative information. Always confirm details with the official sources linked above before acting on them.
