Acceptability of A level subjects

General Studies and Critical Thinking

A level General Studies and A level Critical Thinking will only be accepted as an alternative to the additional AS level subject that is required. We do not recognise AS level General Studies and AS level Critical Thinking for admissions purposes.

Foreign languages

If you are studying a foreign language A level and you wish this subject to be considered, the A level should be in a language that is foreign to you and should not be in your first language. You should indicate in your personal statement (on your UCAS application) that the foreign language A level you are studying is not your first language.

Preferred A levels

In addition to any specified programme requirements, you should also ensure that you are taking at least two A levels from the list of preferred subjects (given below). We are happy to accept any subject as the third A level you offer, provided the other two subjects appear on the approved list. If you are not able to offer two preferred subjects, you should contact the relevant degree programme contact to ascertain whether you can still be considered for admission.
