To enter as a student, you should have been accepted for a course of study by some form of educational institution. You should spend, in practice, at least 15 hours a week in study. You should be able to meet the cost of the course, maintenance and accommodation without working. However, it is frequently possible to successfully apply to the Department of Employment for permission to work on a part-time basis. You may also apply for entry as a prospective student if plans have not been made for the course of study.
Medical students can normally gain entry as a student.
This includes graduates of UK medical schools, doctors and dentists coming for postgraduate training, nurses and midwives.
