What this university is, in practice

Exeter asks A*AA including biology and chemistry, putting it in the harder academic tier of UK medicine: twelve of the 35 UK programs in this catalog require at least one A*, and the rest ask AAA or lower. Its fee and location are otherwise middling — €56,543 a year, five years, about €339,700 all-in.

The A* tier

The published requirement is A*AA including biology and chemistry, with UCAT, academic and UCAT screening followed by a multiple mini interview, plus English-language evidence, occupational health, immunisation, DBS or overseas police and fitness-to-practise clearance.

Twelve of the 35 UK medicine records in this catalog require an A* grade. Eleven of those ask A*AA, as Exeter does; Cambridge alone asks A*A*A. The other twenty-three sit at AAA or below — Buckingham, profiled yesterday, publishes ABB.

So the useful framing is not that Exeter is the hardest UK entry, but that it is on the harder side of a two-tier field, and that the tiers do not track the fee. Exeter's annual rate ranks eighteenth cheapest of the 35, squarely mid-table, while asking more academically than schools charging considerably more.

Mid-table on every cost measure

£48,900 per academic year for international students at 2026 entry, confirmed, converting to about €56,543 at the ECB planning rate this site uses. Five years is roughly €282,700 in tuition — eighteenth of 35 on the annual rate, twentieth on the total.

Exeter's living costs run about €11,400 a year on this site's presets, which is above Lancaster's €10,400 and Aberdeen's €10,800 but well below London's €15,700. Five years is about €57,000, taking the all-in figure to roughly €339,700. The preset carries a Medium source-confidence rating.

Against the other three UK schools profiled today: Lancaster is about €6,600 cheaper all-in, Aberdeen about €3,900 more expensive, and Edinburgh about €111,400 more. Exeter's position is unremarkable on cost, which is what makes the academic requirement the thing that actually decides whether it belongs on your list.

Five years to a BMBS

The degree runs five years to a BMBS from the Medical School. English is the clinical language, which removes the local-language requirement that applies across the non-English-speaking countries profiled elsewhere in this set.

The UCAS calendar applies: the 2026-entry deadline of 15 October 2025 at 18:00 UK time has passed, and for 2027 entry the medicine deadline is 15 October 2026 at 18:00 UK time, with UCAS opening 12 May 2026, UCAT testing between 13 July and 24 September 2026, and interviews usually November to March.

An A*AA offer and a mid-October deadline together mean your predicted grades have to be in place more than ten months before teaching starts, which is the practical constraint the A* tier imposes.

Who this suits

Applicants confident of an A* in biology or chemistry who want a mid-priced UK option, and who understand that the harder academic tier here does not come with a higher fee.
