Entry Requirements
UCAS Tariff
32
168
We consider the strength of our applicants’ portfolios as well as their grades and we therefore may make offers which are lower than our entry criteria of 128 tariff points for BA (Hons) Architecture. This may be to students who have faced difficulties that have affected their performance and who were expected to achieve higher results - in these cases, a strong portfolio is especially important. We regularly admit students with a tariff much higher than our standard 112 requirement, and applicants who show potential but aren’t quite at the stage to be able to succeed on the course are offered a 4 year degree with an integrated foundation year which has a standard entry requirement of 64 tariff points.
