Admission requirements

48+
All students apply through UCAS. Students will ideally require 48 UCAS points to access the programme.
Those with significant work and life experience of a complexity that demonstrates an aptitude to study at degree level, but with no formal qualifications, will also be favourably considered. Different degree pathway options available at the end of the foundation year may have different additional entry requirements.
In order to reflect the higher tariff required for Psychology degree programmes, students will be required to achieve an average of 50% (across the foundation year) in order to progress onto their selected psychology pathway. Students achieving 45-49% will be interviewed by the programme leader or head of subject and may be admitted onto the programme at their discretion.
If you require any further information or clarification of entry requirements please contact our friendly, helpful Admissions department, who will be happy to help.
