AAB normally including one of the core sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics). If a candidate is not sitting any of the core sciences at A Level, we will consider other profiles, e.g., students with Psychology A-level. In these cases, applicants would need strong performance in a core science at AS Level (B or above) or at GCSE level (7 or above) . The candidate would still require AAB in their chosen A-levels. For Biology, Chemistry and Physics A Levels, we require a pass in the practical element. General Studies not accepted as a full A Level. GCSE Mathematics and English required (minimum grade B or 6) if not offered at a higher level.

BTEC Applied Science preferred. Applicants are considered on an individual basis, but BTEC modules studied must include at least 180 GLH in Physiology/Anatomy. Please note that Extended Diplomas in Children's Care or Sport Science are not normally accepted unless accompanied by AS level Biology at grade B.
Extended Certificate in Applied Sciences does not replace a Core Science A level. GCSE Mathematics and English required (minimum grade B or 6)

We welcome applications from students offering an Extended Project and value the skills of research and independent learning that it is designed to develop. If you offer an Extended Project, it will be taken into account as part of your application profile, but we will not usually include it in offer conditions for this degree programme.
