Entry requirements for postgraduates

Check your eligibility for study. We set general entry requirements to ensure that students' qualifications and experience are the right level to study on our courses. We also have course-specific entry requirements.

Work experience and previous study

If you've already been working or have other learning experience relevant to your chosen course then we can count these towards your entry requirements and some modules when you begin your studies.
