Having reached this important milestone, 91����� is delighted to announce that it is now actively recruiting students for its September 2024 intake. This marks a significant step in the University’s journey towards formal accreditation of the new North Wales Medical School.

91����� has been delivering Cardiff University’s C21 Medicine programme in North Wales since 2019 in collaboration with Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board and GPs from across the region with the first cohort graduating this year.

The new programme will remain closely aligned with Cardiff University’s C21 medical curriculum, following strong support from Cardiff University’s School of Medicine for the GMC approval and monitoring process.

The establishment of the North Wales Medical School reflects 91�����'s commitment to providing educational opportunities that are deeply connected to the local community, in partnership with its healthcare partners across the entire North Wales region.

The North Wales Medical School benefits from the support of the Welsh Government, Cardiff University, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board and local General Practitioners. It aims to address the region's healthcare staffing needs by training doctors entirely within the region. Earlier this year, the Welsh Government confirmed funding for the North Wales Medical School, with an initial intake of 80 applicants set to increase annually until reaching its maximum intake capacity of 140 by 2029. This incremental growth in student numbers will help assure a high quality of education and student experience through University and GMC quality monitoring processes.
