Palestinian National Authority: academic equivalencies

The University of Brighton requires all students to have met course specific entry requirements. Details of what your qualification is equivalent to in the UK is listed below.

Undergraduate

We require students taking the شه†اد†ة†ال†ث†ان†وي†ة†ال†ع†ا†م† (General Secondary Education Certificate) to take and successfully complete an international foundation year or equivalent.


Postgraduate

We require a ال ب كال وري وس (Bakalorius / bachelor’s degree) or ال ماج س ت ير (master's degree).

Grading systems vary according to institution. A percentage system is most commonly used, though some institutions in addition provide a letter grade and a GPA. A mark of 60% is the pass mark at most universities.

The grading system used at three universities is illustrated below.
