About St Mary's Twickenham
Not currently open to UK home applicants. Home applicants are withdrawn under current policy; the school expects to open to home students in a future cycle but has given no date.
New international-only MBBS at St Mary's University Twickenham, first cohort September 2026, taken by direct application rather than through UCAS. Still working toward GMC accreditation.
What makes St Mary's Twickenham different
International (non-UK/Irish) applicants only, applying direct rather than through UCAS, so it costs none of your four UCAS medical choices. Weigh that against the accreditation risk: the MBBS is not yet GMC-accredited, and St Mary's contingency is that students would transfer to the University of Lancashire if accreditation is not achieved.
