We will accept any BTEC/OCR qualifications (i.e. Extended Diploma, Diploma or Extended Certificate / Introductory Diploma / Subsidiary Diploma) in combination with A Levels or other acceptable level 3 qualifications. It should be noted that all applicants will need to have A Level Mathematics, Further Mathematics or Physics and this subject must be included along with any applied general qualification.
120 UCAS tariff points to include a minimum of five subjects (four of which must be at Higher Level) to include either Mathematics or Physics at grade H2 and English at H6 if studied at Higher level or O4 if studied at Ordinary Level. If Mathematics is not completed at H2, it needs to be passed at H6 if studied at Higher level or O4 if studied at Ordinary Level, and Physics is then required to be passed at H2 or above.
