What this university is, in practice

De Montfort publishes its full entry requirements — 120 UCAS points, A levels at BBB, IELTS 7.0 — and accepts psychology as the second subject, which almost nothing else in UK pharmacy does. At £17,300 it is the second-cheapest UK MPharm fee on this site, and its all-in total lands within €212 of Huddersfield's.

BBB, and psychology counts

The published requirement is 120 UCAS points with A levels at BBB, including chemistry or biology at B and another subject at B from chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics or psychology. English is IELTS 7.0 for the MPharm. An interactive interview and selection stage follows, with DBS, occupational-health and fitness-to-practise checks.

Two things there are unusual. The first is that the table is published at all: of the ten UK pharmacy schools profiled in this pass, only De Montfort and Ulster expose complete numeric requirements, while the rest record that the grade table was not available in the audited output.

The second is psychology. Every other published pharmacy requirement in this catalog names hard sciences and mathematics; De Montfort accepts psychology as the qualifying second subject alongside chemistry or biology. For an applicant whose A levels are chemistry and psychology, this is a route that may not exist elsewhere.

At BBB the academic bar is also lower than Ulster's AAB, though the IELTS 7.0 requirement is higher than Ulster's 6.5 overall. The two schools are strict in different places, which is only visible because both publish.

Second cheapest fee, and a near-tie on total

£17,300 per academic year, confirmed for 2026-2027, about €20,004 at the ECB planning rate this site uses. Only Bradford at €19,530 is cheaper among the nineteen single-programme UK MPharm pages here. Four years is roughly €80,000 in tuition.

Leicester's living costs run about €10,700 a year on this site's presets, rated Medium confidence, so four years adds €42,800 and the all-in figure is about €122,816.

Huddersfield, profiled alongside it today, comes to €122,604 — a difference of €212 across an entire four-year degree. De Montfort's fee is €347 a year lower and its city €400 a year dearer, and the two almost exactly cancel. That is as close as any two programs get in this catalog, and it is a useful demonstration that neither number decides anything on its own.

Four years, in Leicester

The award is a four-year MPharm (Hons) from the Leicester School of Pharmacy. English is the teaching and placement language, so there is no local-language requirement of the kind that applies across the non-English-speaking countries profiled elsewhere in this set.

The UCAS pharmacy calendar applies: applications opened 13 May 2025 with submissions from 2 September 2025, the equal-consideration deadline is 14 January 2026 at 18:00 UK time, and the final application date is 24 September 2026 subject to vacancies — a far longer window than UK medicine's 15 October close.

Who this suits

Applicants holding psychology rather than a second hard science, those who want to measure themselves against a published BBB and IELTS 7.0 table before applying, and anyone needing one of the two cheapest UK pharmacy fees on this site.

Return-pathway evidence

This is a pharmacy program, so the World Directory of Medical Schools listing and ECFMG Sponsor Note evidence this site carries for medicine does not apply, and the catalog holds no school-level medical registry record for it. A four-year UK MPharm does not meet the stated post-2003 five-year minimum on duration alone, so this degree does not by itself support the FPGEC route to US registration — confirm your position with the NABP and your intended state board. For Canada, the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada says eligible UK graduates may qualify for the streamlined pathway after Document Evaluation. Verify both directly with the relevant regulator before enrolling; nothing here establishes eligibility for examination, registration, or licensure.
