University applicants 2021

Aberdeen University Medicine Open Day will be a virtual event and will take place online on Saturday 13th June, 11:00am – 2:00pm. Registration is now open to all prospective students at this link. Further details about Open Days for all subjects will also be available in due course at abdn.ac.uk/openday.
 
The Medical Schools Council has also produced information for prospective Medicine applicants. For students who may be concerned about sourcing relevant experience or shadowing, they have produced this informative document. They are also hosting Medical Schools Admissions Webinars for teachers and careers advisers supporting widening participation applicants to Medicine. Full details are on the PDF attached; the first of these webinars will take place on Monday 8th June at 11am.
 
A series of informative videos about choosing a course and university, writing your personal statement, and funding information are available here. We hope these videos are helpful to your pupils as they research universities this summer and would appreciate if the link to these can be sent out to your networks. These videos can be viewed at any time and students can ask questions relating to any these talks at our June and July Unibuddy Live sessions, which are scheduled on our Virtual Events page here. Our Information for Teachers webpage is also available here, with guidance supporting informed subject choices for students of all ages.
 
We will also be attending the UK University Search Virtual Fair on Wednesday 17th June, and staff will be available throughout the day to answer questions from prospective students. Details about this event and how to register for students/teachers can be found here.
