What this university is, in practice
This MPharm is run jointly by two universities at Medway, and it is the only entry in this profile set for which we have no living-cost figure at all — Medway has no preset in this site's data. Tuition is €27,173 a year, four years, about €108,700 in total, and the US duration warning that applies to every four-year UK MPharm applies here too.
Two universities, one degree
The program is recorded here under the joint name of the University of Kent and the University of Greenwich, taught at Medway. That is a different arrangement from anything else in this profile set: Hull York Medical School is one school operating across two cities, while this is one degree delivered by two separate universities at a shared location.
The questions that follow are worth asking before applying rather than after: which institution awards the degree, which one registers you as a student, whose regulations govern assessment and appeals, and what happens to any of that if the partnership changes during your four years. None of it appears in a fee table, and all of it is answerable by the admissions office.
Tuition is €27,173 per academic year, confirmed for 2026-2027 — about €108,700 across four years. That is sixteenth of the nineteen single-programme UK MPharm pages on this site, so upper-middle rather than expensive.
Two different housing numbers, both real
This page carried no living-cost figure until an official-source audit on 2026-08-12 resolved it. Medway now has a preset of about €11,400 a year — €510 a month housing plus €630 other living — on the same city-index basis every other page here uses. That puts four years of living at roughly €45,600 and the all-in figure at about €154,300.
Alongside it sits a second, more concrete number. The universities' own 2026/27 rate for a Pier Quays room is £157.04 a week over 51 weeks, roughly €797 a month with utilities, Wi-Fi and insurance included. That is higher than the modelled figure because it is a specific managed hall with bills bundled, not a typical private-market room.
Both are useful and they answer different questions. The preset is what makes Medway comparable against Bradford or Nottingham; the Pier Quays rate is what you would actually pay if you took that hall. Neither is a substitute for asking accommodation services what is available in your year.
The four-year question, unchanged
As with every four-year UK MPharm in this catalog: the degree does not meet the stated post-2003 five-year minimum on duration alone, so it does not by itself support the FPGEC route to US registration. Confirm your position with the NABP and the state board you intend to register with. For Canada, the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada says eligible UK graduates may qualify for the streamlined pathway after Document Evaluation.
English is the teaching and placement language. The award is an MPharm over four years.
A joint degree adds one wrinkle to the licensing question that a single-institution degree does not: when a regulator asks which institution conferred your qualification, the answer needs to be unambiguous on the certificate itself. That is worth confirming with both universities before enrolment rather than at the point of applying for registration.
Who this suits
Applicants comfortable resolving how a two-university partnership works in practice, who will research Medway living costs directly because this site has no figure for it, and who are clear about which country's registration they are aiming at.
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. With a jointly awarded degree, confirm in advance exactly which institution appears as the awarding body on the certificate a regulator will assess.
