Entry requirements
BDS Dental Surgery Graduates should be practicing dentistry whilst undertaking the programme and hold full GDC (or equivalent) registration as a dental practitioner, they should also have full professional indemnity and normally at least two years of clinical experience (full time equivalent).

Candidates whose first language is not English require IELTS 6.5 (with a minimum of 5.5 in each element) or equivalent in a secure English language test. Please note that this programme is delivered on a blended learning basis and therefore it is not suitable for students who would need a Student visa to study in the UK. Students who are non-British or Irish nationals will be expected to reside in their home country whilst studying on this course and the University will assist them in applying for a Visitor visa, to attend taught sessions as the programme requires. The University will provide a letter to support a Visitor visa application but students will need to apply for the visa (and pay the associated costs) themselves. When students are attending taught sessions for short periods in the UK, they will be required to complete the right to study check before being permitted to enrol for every in person teaching block / teaching dates. Students are also asked to provide their flight ticket etc. at the same time as completing the Right to Study check; to evidence their plans and date they will leave the UK after that teaching block.
