Because of different application cycles this number may yet rise. At OIC, we pride ourselves on our expert approach to medicine admissions. In 2019, 100% of our applicants were successful in getting into a medical school. In the academic year 2020/2021, OIC alumni will begin their degrees at 26 medical schools:

University of Aberdeen University College Dublin, Ireland University of Birmingham Keele University Brighton and Sussex Medical School University of Leicester University of Bristol University of Liverpool Cardiff University Newcastle University University of Edinburgh Queen Mary University of Glasgow Queen's University Belfast St George's University, Grenada University of Sheffield Chinese University of Hong Kong Nanyang Technological University, Hong Kong University Singapore Imperial College London University of St Andrew's Royal College of Surgeons, Ireland St George's, University of London Trinity College Dublin, Ireland University College London University College Cork, Ireland University of Central Lancashire

OIC students will also pursue related degrees, such as Veterinary Medicine, Biomedical Sciences, Neurology, or Anatomy.

3 Overcoming the odds

OIC is attended by many international students. Due to that, our applicants often face an additional hurdle: admissions caps and government quotas on many competitive degrees. It is almost twice as difficult for an international student to get into Oxbridge as it is for a British student. In spite of this, OIC continues to defy the trend to consistently send many of our students into top competitive courses:

University of Cambridge 13.4% 21.9% 29.2% 9.8% non-EU, University of 22.7% 50% Oxford 11.4% EU

Moreover, our students most commonly Oxbridge success rates apply for the world's most competitive vary by subject: courses: Medicine, Mathematics, Economics, 10.15% 35-45% Natural Sciences, Law, for medicine for Theology and Engineering, and more. Classics Most of those degrees have less than 10% When making comparisons of Oxbridge acceptance rate. and other top university success rates, it is important to take into account: It is testament to our unique strategic government quotas and caps methodology that we can achieve those statistical success rate for both international and domestic successes despite the unfavourable odds. students difference in competition levels for For the full breakdown of our students' degree offers, varying subjects see the following page. 4 Offer breakdown by university
