UCAS for international graduates !!

Hey there,

I'm trying to figure out how to enter my degrees into the UCAS Education section. I end up choosing "Other" since I don't see anything listed like "BSc" or "MSc." Can anyone shed some light on this? Did you choose "Other" or "Degree" if there was nothing under your specific country?

Also, should I send transcripts to UCAS? Or do the individual schools request them at some point? (Seems like Warwick's policy is that their Admissions Office will request them later on.)

Last question: for people working on a grad degree, did you have to send a letter from your supervisor stating that he/she knows you're applying to medicine? This is the experience I had with Canadian schools.

Thanks!

I'm also applying to the uk and listed my degree under "degree".
I called UCAS about transcripts they say there is no way for them to process them so it wouldnt be worthwhile.
Then I called individual colleges and all of them said they would request them at a later date if need be!
Pretty sure you dont have to send a letter, but if you're using an academic ref. they'll probably know!

I've had Aberdeen ask me for my high school transcript - I responded asking if they would want my university one as well seeing as I've been out of secondary for 4.5 years now. No response yet, but basically they let you know at a later date.
