I was wondering if there is a centralized application service centre for UK med schools for international applicants (North American specifically). The Atlantic Bridge Program for the Irish schools is awesome...is there an equivelant in the UK system?

Thanks for the reply,

The Uk system sounds complex for international applicants. I quickly browsed the UCAS site and the medicine trail. 2 Questions though:

1. Is the UKCAT required for applying to all med schools?

2. Is there a site that would just list the schools with a faculty of medicine? The UCAS site lists all Universities...which are 100s!!! There's the option of viewing schools by geographic location, but not by programs offered.

Thanks

1. Most of them ask for it. Check out their websites. Don't worry - it's easier than the MCAT.
