What are we looking for?
Consideration will be given as to whether applicants will be able to fulfill the objectives of the programme of study and achieve the standards required.
A range of factors additional to, and in some cases instead of, formal examination results is considered in the selection process. These can include:
- The personal statement and reference.
- Additional evidence of achievement, motivation and potential as gathered through interview or assessment of written materials.
- Other factors as appropriate to the discipline of Pharmacy, such as employment or volunteer work in relevant fields and sustained critical engagement with relevant issues.
The potential variety in the range and breadth of qualifications presented by applicants, referred to above, makes a school reference a key aspect in informing our admissions staff of students' abilities and the context in which they have studied. The University of Nottingham asks staff writing references to confirm in the reference any factors, if known, that might have affected the applicant’s achievement. These factors can relate to the student’s personal circumstances and background or to the educational context.
Pharmacy is one of the registered healthcare professions and carries both privileges and responsibilities. Students are expected to conduct themselves professionally at all times. A Code of Conduct applies to Pharmacy students on ALL Pharmacy courses accredited by the Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain (RPSGB). This Code applies from the first day of the course to the day of graduation, and it also applies both on and off campus. To view the Code of Conduct CLICK HERE.
As with ALL RPSGB-accredited Pharmacy courses, when you register we will require you to submit documents which show evidence of Good Conduct and Character. For Malaysian citizens this will require you to obtain a Certificate of Good Conduct from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This process can be done in 1-2 days although you will need to allow a longer time if requesting postage of the documents.
