In order to be accepted for any of the degrees, you must:

1. Be at least 17 years old;
2. Satisfy the general requirements;
3. Satisfy the course requirements for the degree; and
4. Have fluent comprehension and written skills in English.

Applicants who wish to apply to take a degree as an External student often present
a wide range of qualifications. If you have taken British GCSE/GCE 'O' Levels and 'A' Levels, the general entrance requirements and the specific degree requirements are shown below. Other qualifications may be acceptable for admission.

General Entry Requirements

Either passes in:

Two subjects at GCE 'A' Level +
At least three further subjects at GCSE or GCE 'O' Level (at not less than grade C or a 'pass' if taken prior to 1975)
Or
Three subjects at GCE 'A' Level + one further subject at GCSE or GCE 'O' Level (at not less than grade C)
Or
Two subjects at GCE 'A' Level + two further subjects at 'AS' Level.

Notes

a) In all instances where 'A' Level examinations are specified, two 'AS' Level examinations can be accepted as equivalent to one 'A' Level.
b) The same subject may only be offered once and at one level

Applicants with other qualifications not listed above should submit their application for consideration.

Special Admissions

The University of London has a Special Admissions Panel that may consider an application from you if:

Either

you have passed examinations which would give you admission to an acceptable university outside UK

Or

you have obtained an appropriate qualification/s other than a degree from an acceptable institution

Or

you have a professional qualification/s (gained by examination) that admits you to membership of an acceptable professional body

Or

you are over 21 and are therefore considered to be a mature candidate.

Note:

The Special Admissions Panel considers every aspect of the application including all qualifications, relevant work experience, age and reasons for study. Note that applications are rarely accepted on the basis of age and/or work experience alone. Evidence of mature age study is invariably required. The Panel may decide that you must obtain an additional qualification/s before an offer of registration for the External Programme can be made.

Other Acceptable Qualifications

There are many other qualifications, both from the UK and overseas, which the University of London accepts as satisfying the entrance requirements for the degree courses. Please refer to the University of London prospectus for full information.

Notes:

a. Even if your qualifications are not automatically acceptable (e.g. your qualification is not listed in the University's prospectus or you have not met the grades/marks specified), it may still be possible to consider your application on its own merit.

b. University of London cannot give advice or comment on qualifications and eligibility until your application form and fee have been received.

c. If, after considering your application, the University is unable to accept you onto the programme with your current qualifications, the University will suggest what you might do to become qualified.

d. When the University receives your application, it will be kept on file for five years, during which period you will be advised and informed on your application at no extra cost.
