Cardiff University Dentistry Interview: What Cardiff Publishes, and What It Does Not
Cardiff University Dentistry interviews with a Multiple Mini Interview. Cardiff publishes two of the five things a candidate needs and is silent on three: no station count, no station length and no dates. Both halves are on this page.
What Cardiff does not publish about its dentistry interview
- How many stations
- How long each station lasts
- When interviews run
We checked Cardiff's own admissions pages rather than a third-party summary. Anything you find elsewhere on the points above has not been confirmed against a page Cardiff publishes, and should be treated that way.

Cardiff University in its own words
Multiple Mini Interview format, which Cardiff describes as several individual stations with themed questions. Interviews are in person for Home fee status applicants, and Cardiff states it will not offer online interviews except for overseas applicants to the Bachelor of Dental Surgery programme. The majority of stations are mapped to attributes expected of dental professionals by the General Dental Council. Applicants may sit the MMI through the medium of Welsh or bilingually, switching languages at any point without affecting their score. Cardiff does not publish the number of stations on this page.
When interviews run
We read Cardiff University's admissions policy pages on 2026-09-01 and found no interview window published for dentistry. We are not filling that in with a typical season, because a date a student plans around has to come from the school.
Everything else about Cardiff
