Check entry requirements in good time
Entry requirements vary depending on the degree programme and further education programme. Different requirements apply to a Bachelor’s degree than to a Master’s degree for professional development or a certificate programme. Professional experience or specific prior subject knowledge may also play a role.
It is therefore worth checking the entry requirements for your chosen programme at an early stage. The relevant programme pages contain the key information on entry requirements, the application process and the start of the programme.
