Coronavirus FAQs for prospective applicants

We do not anticipate entering Clearing for 2020 entry but it is possible that we will participate in Adjustment for 2020 entry. This information will only be available from the day before A-level results day, 12 August 2020. Details of any course vacancies will be listed on our website.

We are taking advice from exam boards and anticipate that they will take this disruption into account when awarding grades. We will also refer to the information supplied in your teacher’s reference to gain a greater understanding of the disruption caused to the teaching provision at your school/college.

If you received a calculated grade in summer 2020 and subsequently decide to sit exams in autumn 2020 or summer 2021, we will not consider them as re-sits and you will not be disadvantaged.

Applicants should still be predicted to meet the entry requirements stated on our programme pages. 
As we anticipate that exam boards will take disruption caused by COVID-19 into account when awarding grades, therefore would expect that you attain a 6 in English Language and a 6 in Mathematics (this requirement may be higher for some programmes).

 

It is not necessary to provide proof of English language proficiency at the time of application. This does not form part of our assessment process. If you are made an offer for one of our undergraduate programmes and we require an English language qualification, we will request this as part of your offer conditions. Please see our English Language webpage for details of acceptable qualifications and the required scores.
