Bangor University Medicine: UCAT, A-Levels & Interview Requirements
Bangor University has not published a fixed UCAT cut-off for 2027 entry. Here's how UCAT, A-levels, SJT and the interview all fit together for medicine.
- 2027 UCAT cut off
- Not published
- How the UCAT is weighted
- Bangor requires the UCAT, sat in the year of application, but publishes no minimum threshold. It states only that UCAT scores are used as part of the selection process, so the bar is whatever that year's field produces rather than a number an applicant can check themselves against in advance.
- SJT policy
- Bangor publishes no separate SJT policy on its course page. No band is named as an automatic rejection, and no band is named as a requirement.
- A-level requirements
- Standard offer AAA, with compulsory sciences at grade A or above. BTEC, Access to Higher Education courses and T Levels are not accepted for this programme. Scottish applicants need AAB at Advanced Higher including Biology and Chemistry.
- Interview format
- Multiple mini interview (MMI), a series of short timed stations. All applicants selected must attend for interview.
- When interviews run
- Bangor University does not publish its interview dates.
- Resits
- Bangor University publishes no resit policy. That is not the same as resits being accepted, and it is worth asking admissions directly before relying on either reading.
- Personal statement
- Bangor University does not publish how it uses the personal statement. Schools in this dataset range from scoring it to refusing to read it, so nothing can safely be assumed from silence.
What the UCAT had to be,
Bangor University does not publish one.
That is the university's own position, not a gap in our research. Any specific number quoted for Bangor University elsewhere is somebody's reconstruction from reported scores, not a figure the medical school has confirmed. Treat it accordingly.
Bangor states plainly that it has no minimum UCAT threshold, and publishes no mean or median for those interviewed. The score still counts: it is used as part of selection, so a low total is a disadvantage rather than a disqualification. Applicants must sit the UCAT in the year of application.

National benchmark, for context
For context, the UCAT Consortium's own 2025 statistics report a mean cognitive score of 1891 (out of 2,700) across 41,354 tests, with the median (5th decile) at 1880 and the top decile at 2220+. This is a national figure, not Bangor University's own threshold, since Bangor University doesn't publish one for the current cycle.
UCAT Consortium, Test Statistics 2025Standard A-level offer: Standard offer AAA, with compulsory sciences at grade A or above. BTEC, Access to Higher Education courses and T Levels are not accepted for this programme. Scottish applicants need AAB at Advanced Higher including Biology and Chemistry. SJT policy: Bangor publishes no separate SJT policy on its course page. No band is named as an automatic rejection, and no band is named as a requirement. Worth knowing: The North Wales Medical School's own five-year A100 BMBS, taught in Wrexham and Bangor, built on the earlier C21 North Wales programme rather than remaining a Cardiff-delivered course. It is NOT available to international students. A100 was already full for September 2026 at the point of checking, with 2027 entry applications opening on 1 September 2026 and closing 15 October 2026. Always confirm against the official page before applying, since this is the most recent published position rather than a guarantee for the live cycle.
