Lancaster University Medicine Interview: What Lancaster Publishes, and What It Does Not
Lancaster University Medicine interviews with a Multiple Mini Interview. Lancaster publishes two of the five things a candidate needs and is silent on three: no station count, no station length and no delivery mode. Both halves are on this page.
What Lancaster does not publish about its medicine interview
- How many stations
- How long each station lasts
- Online or in person
We checked Lancaster'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 Lancaster publishes, and should be treated that way.

Lancaster University in its own words
Multiple Mini Interview. Applicants who meet Lancaster's requirements and score competitively on the UCAT are invited to interview, held in January and February, with most invitations sent out in December. You complete a number of different stations which assess some of the skills, values and attributes required to study and practise medicine successfully. Each station is assessed by a trained interviewer, drawn from university staff, NHS clinicians, GPs, patient and public representatives, and medical students. Your individual station scores are combined into an overall MMI score, applicants are ranked on that score, and offers go to the highest scorers. No offer is made without attending an interview. Lancaster's how-to-apply pages do not currently state how many stations there are, how long each one lasts, or whether the interview is held online or in person.
When interviews run
Lancaster publishes an interview window of January to February.
