Entry requirements

For A levels, UCL typically makes offers in the range of A*A*A-ABB. For all programmes, you must have at least two A levels from our list of preferred subjects.

Please note that we do not consider General Studies or Critical Thinking to meet the entry requirements for any of our programmes.

As well as A levels, we accept a wide range of other UK and overseas qualifications, for which requirements will be listed under each individual programme in the online Prospectus.

Please note that for some programmes there may be additional admissions tests that will need to be taken. These will be indicated on the programme page in the online Prospectus.

If you are not a national of a majority English speaking country (as defined by the UK Visas and Immigration, Home Office) you must provide recent evidence of your English proficiency. The English language requirements for each programme are shown on the relevant page in the online Prospectus.

Access UCL –contextual offer

As part of our commitment to increasing participation from underrepresented groups, students may be eligible for a contextual offer as part of the Access UCL scheme. The contextual offer will be a lower offer than the standard UCL offer and is listed under each programme on the online Prospectus page. For more information on eligibility criteria for the Access UCL scheme, visit: ucl.ac.uk/prospective-students/ undergraduate/access-ucl-scheme

Engineering Foundation Year

The Engineering Foundation Year at UCL is for UK-based people who aspire to become an engineer but do not meet the standard entry requirements for UCL’s undergraduate engineering degrees.

To be eligible to apply, you must be attending or have attended a UK state school for your Level 3 qualifications (unless you have refugee status) and live in an area that has a high level of financial, social or economic deprivation, or low progression to higher education.
