Flexible admissions

Your examination grades are important to us, but we will also take your other achievements and experiences into account. Our approach is about you as an individual, about giving you every opportunity to succeed with us and achieve your goals.

  • We welcome a range of qualifications. These include A-levels, International Baccalaureates, BTECs and Access courses – we use the UCAS tariff to assess all kinds of achievement – academic and vocational. We will also welcome the new T-level qualification for entry from 2022 for courses that are good matches for the T-level curriculum studied.
  • We consider every application individually. Our students are people who bring a huge range of different experiences, talents and strengths to our community, so make sure you use your personal statement to show us everything you have to offer.
  • We want to get to know you. For some courses this might be through a portfolio or an interview, this gives us more opportunities to get to know more about you, your values and what motivates and inspires you.
  • We will make you a personalised offer. For many courses you’ll find that our entry requirements sit within a range. If your predicted grades are at the top of this range we will generally make you an offer. If your predicted grades are towards the lower end but you’ve a good GCSE profile or relevant non-academic achievements we can still make you an offer.
  • You can tailor your degree to best fit your aspirations. Study with us and you will have opportunities to select optional modules and fieldtrips, placement or volunteering opportunities. For some courses the options you choose can enable you to formally specialise and have this acknowledged in the degree title you are awarded.
