Access route

Entrance Requirements

To be eligible for the Access route, you must:

  • normally* be at least 17 years old before 1 September in the year you first register with the University and

  • have passed a minimum of four separate subjects at GCSE/GCE 'O' level (at not less than grade C), or the equivalent and

  • have reached a level of competence in Mathematics at least equivalent to a pass (at not less that Grade C) at GCSE/GCE 'O' level in a mathematical subject and
  • provide proof of competence in English which is acceptable to the University. (It may be necessary for you to have passed a recognised test of proficiency, at the appropriate level, within the last three years.)

*Applications will be considered from applicants who do not meet the normal minimum age requirement for admission. Each application will be considered on an individual basis, and the decision taken at the discretion of the University of London.

Note: There are many other acceptable qualifications (pdf: 6pgs, 91KB), both from the UK and overseas, which the University accepts instead of British 'O' and 'A' levels. Applicants with other qualifications not listed above and/or suitable work experience will be considered by the University on an individual basis.
