Ahead of enrolment, you will be asked to upload a copy of your academic certificates and ID documents to the Applicant Portal. This is an important part of preparing to start at St George's.
You will need to upload the following documents:
For all applicants
- Proof of identification (e.g. passport or driving licence)
- English Language tests (if applicable)
- A signed Student Entry Agreement (a blank copy will be sent to you ahead of enrolment)
For non-graduate applicants
You do not need to upload A Level, IB, BTEC, Access, or Scottish Higher qualifications that were taken this year.
For graduate applicants
- Undergraduate degree certificate(s)
- Postgraduate degree certificate(s) (if applicable)
You will receive an email at the right time to do this. In the meantime, please gather your certificates so you have them ready.
Please note, you may be required to present some of the original documents again at enrolment. We will confirm this with you by email before enrolment.
We want to make sure we can support you through your studies.
If you suffer or have suffered from a serious illness (physical or psychological), or have a disability or specific learning difficulty, please let us know. St George’s is committed to supporting our students and will explore all reasonable adjustments to support you to thrive on your course.
Please contact our Disability Advisor as soon as possible with details to help us establish whether your health history or disability is likely to affect your ability to study or practise. This will also give us sufficient time to carry out a detailed assessment, obtain reports and organise additional expert assessments if required.
There are very few reasons why someone cannot study with us, but occasionally our Disability Advisor or a member of the St George's Trust's Occupational Health department may advise that an applicant is not fit to study immediately which could result in a deferral or a withdrawal.
All of our courses include elements of teaching for which you will be required to attend the University site and attendance at these sessions will be essential to enable you to engage with the course and undertake assessments.
You will be required to undertake a personal risk assessment before you can attend any placements or undertake certain activities, such as those which include the practice of clinical skills or require the use of PPE. Where a health concern arises, every effort will be made to identify alternative placements arrangements, but your health and safety will be the first priority and alternative arrangements may not be possible, which may have implications for your study. If you are clinically vulnerable, we strongly encourage you to contact the Disability Advisor now to undertake an assessment.
