Linked Applications
Every foundation school honours linked applications so that linked applicants are allocated to the same foundation school. Others will honour them further, ensuring applicants are allocated programmes within a certain distance of each other.
Trent does not support linked applications at a programme level, however most hospitals are reasonably close.
