Undergraduate Information
US Entry Requirements
We require the equivalent of three UK A levels – undergraduate students from the US can typically meet this by successfully completing their High School Diploma with a combination of the following options:
- Advanced Placement tests (APs) – typically ranging from 444 to 555, depending on programme
- ACT (composite score) – typically ranging from 28 to 32
- College level class credit (at least three units/credits or one semester in length) – B grade or above
- High school honours class credit (at least one year’s duration; year 11 or 12) – B grade or above
These options can be ‘mixed and matched’ to meet our standard 3 x A level requirements. For example, you may have one Advanced Placement test, one High School honours class and one College-level class.
Please note however, that any subject-specific A level requirements can only be met by any of the following:
- A relevant Advanced Placement Test grade
