ENTRY REQUIREMENTS COURSES
have individual entry requirements and some require specific subjects. Visit the full course information on our website to find out if this applies to the course you’re interested in. Our minimum entry requirement for a degree course is two A levels or equivalent, but some courses will require three A levels. If your chosen course is in science or engineering, please check our website to see whether A levels in physics, chemistry and biology where science practical assessments are taken are a requirement for entry. Most courses also require a minimum of grade 4 in GCSE English and maths, (or grade C for qualifications taken prior to 2017), or a grade C in both subjects where GCSEs are taken in Northern Ireland or Wales, however some may require a grade 5. We operate a flexible admissions policy and treat everyone as an individual. This means that we will take into consideration your educational achievements and predicted grades (where applicable) together with your application as a whole, including work experience and potential to succeed in your chosen course.
International students will need to show a good level of English (usually a minimum of IELTS at 6.0 or above, with a minimum score of 5.5 in each component). This can vary depending on the course though, so please check the course information on our website for details.
