About this course

Get on the right track for a research career in biochemistry with Newcastle University Each year, universities may have spaces left on their courses after the application window has closed in June. UCAS Clearing is your opportunity to snap up one of these places, even if you didn't apply to the university prior to the June deadline. It also gives you a second chance to go to university if you didn't get the grades you needed for your firm and insurance offers.

Our Clearing entry requirements may differ from those advertised. Please contact our friendly advisers to find out if you’re eligible for a place.
