Swansea / Interview
The Swansea interview
No admissions interview. Here is how it works and how to prepare.
No admissions interview
No interviews offered for most courses. A small number of health and professional programmes (Medicine, Nursing, Midwifery, allied health) include interviews or situational judgement tests , check the specific course page on swansea.ac.uk.
How to prepare for Swansea
- Swansea selects almost entirely on predicted/achieved A-level (or equivalent) grades plus your UCAS personal statement , focus your energy on hitting the stated grade requirements for your course.
- Your UCAS personal statement (shared across all your UK choices) is your main differentiator: make it subject-specific and show genuine academic motivation for the discipline.
- If applying to Medicine, Nursing, Midwifery, or an allied health programme, check the Swansea course page early for interview dates and any additional requirements such as MMI stations or situational judgement tests.
- Show interest through open days and campus visits , Swansea values students who have engaged with the university, and this can strengthen the academic reference your school writes on your behalf.
Practice before the real thing
Rehearse real admissions-interview questions and get an honest read on your answers, what an interviewer hears, where you sound generic, and what to sharpen. We coach you; we never script you.
