To narrow the scope of my request, I would like to request the following information regarding admission to the Bachelor of Pharmacy programme via the Two or More Years of University Study category.
For the 2022, 2023,2024 and 2025 admission cycles, please provide:

The Act requires that we advise you of our decision on your request no later than 20 working days after the date your request was received/clarified. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to meet that time limit. We are therefore writing to notify you, pursuant to section 15A of the Act, of an extension of the time to make our decision in respect of your request, by a further 20 working days – to 13 May 2026. However, we will endeavour to provide the information sooner if possible. We thank you for your patience.
If you are not satisfied with our extension of time, you have the right to make a complaint to the Ombudsman under section 28(3) of the Act. However, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss any concerns with you first.
