Bangor University has contextual requirements around the Welsh language. This allows it to make a more favourable academic offer to applicants on the basis that Welsh-speakers are under-represented in medical programmes.
Bangor University’s offer is available to those with a Welsh GCSE first language, or an A-Level Welsh second language.
On this basis, 21 of the 120 applicants (18%) met the criteria for the first-year course. And two of the 25 applicants (8%) met the criteria for the graduate-entry programme.
