NCS Med School
The NCS Med School was set up to provide a dedicated service to those students who aspire to study medicine, dentistry and veterinary science at some of the world’s leading universities.
With students securing over 100 medicine and dentistry offers every year, NCS Med School has quickly established a local and national reputation for supporting students with their applications. The NCS Med School consists of a team of dedicated experts and is ably led by Ms Qureshi, who is the Director of Medical and Dentistry Admissions.
“The NCS Med School is absolutely amazing. They help with every single step of the medical application process.”

The Student’s View On NCS Med School
"The NCS Med School give us accounts for a website called Medify and that was the best thing for the UCAT. Normally you would have to pay for that account but The NCS provides it to us for free."
"The NCS Med School provided me with work placements in an NHS Hospital. I got to shadow junior doctors and registrars. Seeing surgery and being in A&E really opened my eyes to the world of medicine."

Admitting to many “tribulations” in his pre-undergraduate studies, Lukenny also talks warmly of how The NCS nurtured and taught him the rewards of working hard in an environment that housed other like minded students. He saw that same NCS quality at Imperial College London and after acing his A-Levels, decided it would be the perfect place to develop his skills in medicine.
“Whilst I had a lot of tribulations at The NCS, it was also one of those things where I would never ever take it back. I learned so much at The NCS. So much more than just books. So much about life. So much of knowing to stick through the tough times. That atmosphere taught me to never give in to the challenges. I would definitely recommend it to any students that want to go far.”
