How to apply

How do I apply?

You must apply for an undergraduate degree programme via UCAS.  For further information see 'How to apply'

What grades do I need?

Entry requirements for all our undergraduate programmes can be found in coursefinder

I haven't got the grades or don't think I will achieve the required grades; should I still apply?

You need to be realistic - look at the typical offers and check whether your predictions match. However, we recognise that not all applicants are able to demonstrate their talents and potential as readily as others through grades alone. Access to Leeds is an alternative admissions scheme which considers your personal circumstances. Access to Leeds gives special consideration to applicants who meet the eligibility criteria, and have the potential to succeed at the University.

I'm not studying A-Level; can I still apply to Leeds?

We welcome applicants with a variety of qualifications. For further information see our accepted qualifications

Do you offer foundation-level programmes and extended degrees?

If you do not have the formal qualifications for immediate entry to a degree course, you can take a foundation degree. These courses help you prepare for degree-level studies and gain the necessary academic background. We also offer a one-year, part-time preparatory programme, Preparation for Higher Education

Will you be accepting the A*?

At present, the University of Leeds will not use the A* in offer making.

Do you accept General Studies and Critical Thinking?

Individual departments decide whether they accept Critical Thinking and General Studies. Please refer to coursefinder or the UCAS website to see whether departments include these qualifications in their offers.
