Entry requirements for students from Brunei

If you're joining us from Brunei, the entry requirements you need to meet will depend on the course you want to study.

We consider all applications we receive. However, to make sure you get the most out of your time studying with us and have the best chance of applying successfully, we recommend the following minimum qualifications:

Foundation courses

If you have a minimum of 5 GCSEs including English at Grade C or above, you'll usually need to do a foundation year before doing an undergraduate course such as a Bachelor's degree.

We recommend you take a foundation course at our associated college

Undergraduate courses

If you have studied relevant subjects and achieved strong grades, we'll consider you for admission onto an undergraduate course with one of the following:

• A minimum of 3 A levels, based on UCAS tariff point equivalency, including subject-specific requirements where appropriate
• Matriculation Certificate. This will be based on similar A level tariff point equivalency, including subject-specific requirements where appropriate
• Successful completion of a recognised foundation programme
• A Higher National Diploma may be considered for advanced entry onto a relevant undergraduate degree programme

A levels

• Please check your specific course page to find the exact number of points needed. Your A level grades should equal or exceed the total points required. You can use the UCAS Tariff Calculator to work out your total points.
• Some courses will require you to have studied specific subjects at A level. For example, to study a science course you will usually need to have achieved passing grades in scientific subjects at A level.
• A level points: A* = 56 A = 48 B = 40 C = 32 D = 24.

International Baccalaureate

• Most courses will require between 24 and 31 points in the International Baccalaureate (IB), depending on the degree you apply for.

You may be able to join an undergraduate course with other qualifications. We do consider qualifications from a range of sources. Contact us to find out more.

Postgraduate courses

For entry to our postgraduate Master's programmes, you'll usually need to have a good Bachelor's degree with at least 2nd Class Honours, depending on the course you're applying for.

All applications are considered individually and certain courses may accept students onto a Masters programme with a lower level degree if they have relevant work experience.

If you don't meet the postgraduate entry requirements, you can do a pre-Master's programme at for many of our courses.

PhDs

We'll consider you for a PhD if you have a good Master’s degree and submit a research proposal.
