Undergraduate academic requirements

For Year 1 entry we are looking for students with grades equivalent to the examples below. Contact our International Team today to check if we accept your grades or check the accepted qualifications for international students here.

Year 0 entry

We offer an Integrated Foundation Year across all of our undergraduate courses. They have lower academic requirements to the typical three year degrees. Check the entry requirements for Year 0 by contacting the International Office.

Portfolios and auditions

To complete your application, for the majority of our courses, you will need to submit a digital portfolio of creative work (BA Acting requires an online audition). We will also ask you to respond to four written interview questions. You can find portfolio / audition advice on each of the course pages. The International Office will be able to guide you through this process.
