Remarks
There are often limited places for students who can transfer from Foundation to Year 1 of Physiotherapy in British universities . Since there are many students who meet the score requirements, British universities often rely on interviews to select which students can transfer from Foundation to Year 1 of Physiotherapy.
- Among the 18 UK universities with Foundation in Physiotherapy, only one allows students to directly advance to Year 1 through the Foundation in Physiotherapy without an interview or screening.
- Some UK physiotherapy foundations require interviews both at the foundation level and when entering Year 1.
- Some UK Physiotherapy Foundations do not have interviews for admission, but require interviews for Year 1 of Physiotherapy! These UK Physiotherapy Foundations will oversubscribe, but in the end only a small number of students may be able to enter Year 1 of Physiotherapy through the Physiotherapy Foundation, so be careful!
