How this university scores applications, with the figures it publishes.

High level summary

Simple summary. Excruciating detail below.

QuestionAnswer
Is there a score to clear?Not published. No score can be called safe or out of reach here. Treat figures from other sources with care.
How to read the UCAT figures hereNeither a lowest score nor an average is published, so there is nothing here to measure against.
What else countsDegree subject and class are a requirement in their own right. Details below. GCSEs are a gate. Meeting the minimum is what counts; beating it earns nothing. The personal statement is not used to shortlist. No SJT rule is published.

Summary of the selection model

ItemDetail
Scoring approachWhich admissions test you may sit depends on your degree subject - GAMSAT is open to everyone, UCAT only to five named science degrees. Personal statement not scored
Admissions test - how it is usedGAMSAT accepted from all applicants. UCAT accepted only from applicants holding or studying a degree in Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Science, Chemistry or Natural Sciences. Used to shortlist for interview
GAMSAT requirementAccepted for all degree subjects
UCAT thresholdUCAT accepted only for Biochemistry, Biology, Biomedical Science, Chemistry and Natural Sciences degrees
Interview formatOnline MMI
Data statusThreshold figures not published
SJT requirementA real published threshold: SJT band 3 or above is required to be considered for interview, and any applicant with band 4 is rejected. This is the only numerical cut-off Surrey publishes.
Academic requirement2:1 honours degree in any subject, all disciplines given equal consideration. GCSE Maths and English at grade C or 4 and above. A levels are not used and not scored on this route.
Contextual offerNo contextual offer and no reduction in entry requirements. Widening participation is handled through scholarships instead: up to two full fee waivers with 10,000 pounds a year living costs, and up to four awards of 3,000 pounds in the first year. Selection for these is by MMI rank, so the academic bar is unchanged.
Funded places34, all home, none overseas, per the Office for Students maximum fundable limits. Surrey does not appear in the tables for earlier entry cohorts.
Fee statusOpened September 2024 with an international-only first cohort. Home students admitted from 2025 entry onwards.
Data status (further detail)Nothing published on applications, interviews, offers, acceptances or test score distributions. At least two complete cycles including home students, 2025 and 2026 entry, so the data exists. With only 34 places, expect a section 40(2) argument on any fine breakdown, so ask for suppression or grouping rather than exact small cells.
