Entry Requirements

A level

A,A,A

AAA including Mathematics and Physics and one other subject. We are willing to consider applicants without Physics if they have studied Further Mathematics, applications will be considered on a case by case basis. Please contact us to discuss your academic background. If you do not have the required grades or subjects you may want to consider our integrated foundation year. Practical skills are a crucial part of science education and therefore there will be a requirement to pass the practical element of any science A-level taken. Where applicants are applying for science and related degrees, this is likely to be made explicit in the offers you will receive. Typical Contextual Offer: AAB including Mathematics and Physics and one other subject. We are willing to consider applicants without Physics if they have studied Further Mathematics, applications will be considered on a case by case basis.
