King's welcomes applicants to our undergraduate courses from countries all over the world.

Entry requirements will vary according to the course of study, so it is important to check specific entry qualifications within our online prospectus on the individual course pages under the 'Entry requirements' section. International entry requirements can also be found in this location under 'International applicants'.

If your country or qualification is not listed on the online prospectus please contact our King's Advisors for further help.

Our online prospectus will have further details of selection procedures and any other requirements for entry onto your chosen course.

Every undergraduate programme available to study at King's will have a list of entry requirements, which can be found on our online prospectus. If a programme includes any requirements regarding applicants that have re-sat their qualifications, this will be clearly stated under the 'Entry requirements' tab for your chosen programme of study.

We strongly advise that you take some time to review our online prospectus before making an application to study at King's. For some of our very competitive courses, you should bear in mind that your application will be reviewed alongside other strong applicants, who might be viewed more favourably  if they achieved the required grades within the standard study period, for example, two years for A-levels.

Applicants who have recently achieved grades which are below the entry criteria, and have subsequently studied/are studying another eligible qualification to seek entry, such as an Access to HE Diploma or a UK Foundation programme, may also be considered as a resit applicant.

We understand that some applicants may offer a combination of level 3 qualifications taken at the same time and we can consider certain combinations for entry onto our undergraduate programmes. For example, we can consider combinations of two A-levels and one Pre-U Principal Subject or one A-level and two Pre-U Principal Subjects. Our A-level BTEC combinations can be found on the individual course pages.

Combinations of different level 3 qualifications are considered on a case-by-case basis and we do not count qualifications taken in the same subject as two separate qualifications at level 3.

All the programmes below require students to take an aptitude test in addition to meeting other entry requirements. This provides us with additional information about an applicant's abilities and potential.

These tests are compulsory so it is important that you check the online prospectus entry for your programme for further details of how these test results are used in selection, and to ensure that you make arrangements for taking the test in good time (where applicable).
Aptitude tests
A few things to note:

You must take the exact test specified: for example, for Medicine we require the UCAT, and we will not accept the BMAT.

If you usually require special arrangements for assessments (for example, extra time or a particular test environment) due to a learning difference or disability, make sure that you inform the test provider in good time.

Some test providers will charge a fee for taking this test. However, usually the provider will be able to waive fees or provide a discount/bursary for applicants in financial need: exact arrangements may vary so please do check with the test provider.

Unfortunately, we are unable to consider Mitigating Circumstances for issues affecting a UCAT or LNAT test.

UCAS tariff points are not used when assessing applications to our undergraduate programmes. Instead, entry requirements are expressed in terms of qualifications and/or grade requirements. For further information on a particular programme, please visit our online prospectus.

To study at King's, it is essential that you can communicate in English effectively in an academic environment. You are usually required to provide certification of your competence in English before starting your studies. The exception is if the university is satisfied that your previous academic record shows that you can study and be examined in the English language.

Find out more on our English language requirements webpage.

How many subjects?

Our conditional offers are based on three A-level subjects. If you are studying four or more A-level subjects, we will take the highest three grades into consideration for assessment. High achievement in additional A-level subjects may compensate for an applicant who narrowly fails to achieve the A-level offer.

Grades and predictions

If you have achieved your A-level grades already please declare these on your application. If you are taking your A-levels in the year you are applying, we would expect predicted grades to be provided for these by your referee.

For the majority of our undergraduate programmes, we do not consider AS-levels and applicants are required to complete A-levels in full.

Early sittings

Please note that whilst King's encourages students to stretch themselves academically, students who are entered early for their examinations should have the potential to achieve the same grade as might be expected if they were entered in the standard year. Therefore, if you gain an A-level B in Year 11, this will not be considered as competitive as a student who achieved a grade A in year 12.

Exceptions

A-levels in General Studies, Critical Thinking, Thinking Skills and Global Perspectives are not accepted by King's as one of your A-levels.

Practical endorsement

King's believes that practical skills are a vital part of a Science education. Where an applicant is studying linear A Levels in England, a pass in the practical endorsement is required in all Science subjects. This is with the exception of private candidates who are unable to take the practical component.

Native language A-level

All modern foreign language A-levels can be used for entry regardless of an applicant's native language. Any subject requirements for the programme must also be met.

King's welcomes applicants with the UK Access to HE Diploma, and will usually specify a certain number of Level 3 credits required at Distinction and Merit level.

Where our entry requirements specify compulsory or preferred subjects, you may be asked for additional information on the subject content of your Diploma. Please check the online programme pages carefully for subject specific requirements. However, where accepted, as a general guide:

Thinking of taking an Access to HE Diploma?

Please check our online prospectus carefully to check acceptability for your preferred programme of study at King's. You can find a list of accredited Access to HE courses in your area on the Access to HE Diploma website.

Predicted grades

We recognise that many referees may not feel in a position to accurately predict Access to HE results early in the application cycle. However, to ensure a fair assessment is applied to all applicants, we do require predicted grades and, therefore, where a referee is unable to provide predicted grades at the point of application, the Admissions team will contact you via King's Apply to request predicted grades, and will be unable to progress your application further without them. A final deadline will be set for the predicted grades to be provided.

Applicants with US high school qualifications can meet our entry requirements through a combination of APs, SATs and ACTs listed below.

Where our online prospectus asks for a specific subject grade at A-level, we would require the following:

AP Calculus AB and AP Calculus BC can be considered as individual APs. However, for programmes with a Mathematics subject requirement, applicants will need to complete AP Calculus BC or SAT Subject Test Maths Level 2 to meet the subject requirement.

For programmes with a Physics subject requirement, applicants will need to complete either AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism or AP Physics C: Mechanics or SAT Subject Test Physics.

If an applicant is taking more than one AP/SAT Subject Test in the same subject, we are only able to count it as one subject.

AP Microeconomics and AP Macroeconomics can be considered as individual APs.

AP European History, AP US History and AP World History can be considered as individual APs.

AP Capstone Research and Seminar is not accepted. We also do not consider AP classes towards meeting our entry requirements and applicants must have taken, or be taking, AP exams.

For some highly-competitive programmes, where applicants are applying using the Just AP route, those who are studying/have studied more than the minimum required five will be considered more competitive.

Most of our undergraduate programmes will consider the AQA Level 3 Extended Certificate in Science and AQA Level 3 Extended Certificate in Business, with the exception of Medicine and Dentistry. These qualifications must be taken in conjunction with two A-levels and Distinctions are usually required.

Where our entry requirements specify compulsory or preferred subjects, applicants will be expected to meet this with their A-level qualification. Please note we do not accept the AQA Level 3 Certificate for entry onto our undergraduate programmes.

Most of our undergraduate programmes will consider the following Pearson BTEC and OCR Cambridge Technicals qualifications, with the exception of Medicine and Dentistry.

We accept both BTEC Nationals and BTEC International with the same entry requirements.

Please check our online prospectus for the specific requirements for the programme you are interested in.

Most programmes will require a BTEC or Cambridge Technical qualification to be accompanied by one or two A-levels, and Distinctions are usually required. Where our entry requirements specify compulsory or preferred subjects, applicants will be expected to meet this with their A-level qualification.

Please note, if an application is received for a programme where the entry requirements state that A-levels are required alongside the BTEC/Cambridge Technical but no A-levels are declared on the application, the application will be made unsuccessful. Therefore, to avoid using one of your five UCAS choices on an application that will be automatically rejected, please check the entry requirements before applying to ensure you are completing the required combination of qualifications for that programme.

King's welcomes applications from students studying the Pre-U. Each programme will require a specific level of achievement in the three Principal subjects. We recognise that some students might offer a mixed portfolio of Pre-U and A-level qualifications and are experienced in assessing such applications. As a guide:

Pre-U equivalencies

Exceptions

Pre-U Global Perspectives is not accepted by King's as one of your Pre-U Principal subjects. However, the grade may be taken into account if a candidate falls just short of the conditions of their offer.

We recognise that Core Maths qualifications have the potential to develop a level of mathematical skill that would be beneficial for studying many of our undergraduate programmes, and we will accept Core Maths in lieu of any required maths grade at GCSE, using the below equivalencies. However, where maths is a required subject at A level, we would not consider Core Maths to be a suitable alternative for meeting this requirement.

King's has agreed the following grade equivalencies:

Applicants studying Foundation Year programmes in the UK are welcome to apply for this programme. Foundation programmes from other universities and further education providers in the UK are considered on a case-by-case basis. Whether or not we can consider a particular foundation year as suitable for study at King's depends on the content of the syllabus and modules studied. In the past we have accepted foundation programmes from a number of other institutions.

We are unable to accept Foundation programmes that are integrated as part of a main degree at another institution. These may be called Year 0 or Integrated Foundations. We are also unable to accept non-UK Foundation courses.

Once you have submitted an application, the Admissions Office may contact you via King's Apply to ask for further details on your qualification, such as a list of modules and course specifications.

The King's International Foundation Programme has guaranteed pathways available for progression onto our King's undergraduate degree programmes, and information can be found on the website.

Where we specify a requirement for GCSE grade 4 in English or Maths in our Nursing and Midwifery pre-registration programmes, we are able to accept a 'Pass' in Functional Skills Level 2 in English or Maths as meeting the GCSE requirement.

However, where we specify a requirement for GCSE grades 5, B/6 or A/7, Functional Skills would not be accepted in place of the GCSE.

GCSE requirements

Some programmes require students to have achieved a certain standard(s) at GCSE (or equivalent below) in addition to higher qualifications (such as A-levels). For example, students applying for a degree leading to registration as a nurse or midwife must have achieved five GCSEs at grade C or above, including English Language, Mathematics and Science.

GCSEs taken earlier than Year 11

Please note that whilst King's encourages students to stretch themselves academically, students who are entered early for their public examinations should have the potential to achieve the same grade as might be expected if they were entered in the standard year. This means that a student who gains a GCSE Grade B in Year 10 will be considered to have Grade B and will not be considered favourably when compared to students who achieved Grade A in the standard year of examination.

Note: If GCSE is your highest qualification, you will need to undertake further study before you are eligible to apply for a programme at King's.

GCSEs (9 to 1) - England

Since summer 2017, student's GCSE English and GCSE Maths exam results are graded from 9-1 instead of A*-G. From summer 2019, all GCSE subjects are graded this way. King's has agreed the following grade equivalencies:
GCSE (9 to 1)

GCSEs (A* - C* - G) - Northern Ireland

Since summer 2019, all GCSE subjects in Northern Ireland from CCEA are graded on a new nine-letter grading scale from A*-G. This grading scale will introduce the new C* grade. King's has agreed the following grade equivalencies:
GCSEs Northern Ireland

King's welcomes students from the UK and across the globe studying the IB Diploma. Our offers will usually specify certain marks in three subjects at Higher Level, in addition to an overall point score for the whole Diploma. Our point score includes points for Theory of Knowledge (TOK) and the Extended Essay (EE). As a guide:
New IB Mathematics requirements
Since summer 2019, Year 11 students studying IB Mathematics can choose either the Analysis and Approaches or Applications and Interpretation pathway. King's would expect to see IB students studying the new curriculum from 2021. Where Mathematics was previously required at Higher Level, King's would ask applicants to study:
IB Maths requirements

HL Analysis and Approaches for the following programmes:

Mathematics (all programmes)

Physics (all programmes)

Engineering (all Biomedical and Electronic programmes)

Either pathway accepted at higher level for:

Accounting and Finance BSc

Economics BSc

Economics and Management BSc

Computer Science (all programmes)

Chemistry (all programmes)

Pharmacy

Physiotherapy

Psychology (all programmes)

Sport and Exercise Medical Sciences

If Maths is a listed as a preferred subject, either pathway would be adequate preparation for the programme. When Maths is required at GCSE level, IB applicants can use either pathway at Standard Level or the Maths component of their IB Middle Years programme to meet this requirements.

King's welcomes students from the UK and across the globe studying the IB Careers Programme (IBCP). Most of our programmes will consider the IBCP as a combination of IB certificates and Level 3 BTEC diplomas. Combinations with other acceptable Level 3 qualifications will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

We will usually be asking for Distinctions and HL5, HL6 or HL7, but please check our online prospectus for programme-specific requirements for BTEC qualifications.

Where our entry requirements specify compulsory or preferred subjects, we will be looking for this to have been met via the subject content of the BTEC or Higher Level.

King's welcomes applications from students studying Scottish Highers and Advanced Highers. Our offers normally require applicants to take two Advanced Highers in addition to three Highers. Comparable typical offer requirements:

Required and preferred subjects

Some of the programmes we offer require you to have studied a subject or subjects to a certain level before commencing your undergraduate studies. Any required subjects must be met at Advanced Higher level. Where our online prospectus asks for a specific subject grade at A-level, we are likely to require A in the Advanced Higher subject for an A*, A in the Advanced Higher subject for an A and B in the Advanced Higher subject for a B (see our online prospectus for details of any compulsory/preferred subjects). Where our online prospectus states 'Preferred subjects', this indicates that you may be at an advantage if you are studying the subject(s); however they are not compulsory for admission.

'Double counting'

King's does not count the Higher and Advanced Higher in the same subject. As an example, this means that an applicant offering Mathematics as a Higher level subject could not also use Advanced Higher level Mathematics to meet the typical offer requirements.

T levels have the potential to develop many skills which may prove beneficial when studying at King's. T levels will not however be considered in place of the standard A-level requirements, with the exception of Nursing and Midwifery courses:

For Nursing with Registration as a Children's Nurse BSc, we will accept the T Level in Health with grades of Merit overall, with A in the Core component.

For Midwifery with Registration as a Midwife BSc, we will accept the T Level in Health with grades of Merit overall, with A in the Core component.

For Nursing with Registration as an Adult Nurse BSc, we will accept the T Level in Health with grades of Merit overall.

For Nursing with Registration as a Mental Health Nurse BSc, we will accept the T Level in Health with grades of Merit overall.

Report conducted by the Royal Society strongly urged for there to be an increase in the opportunity for young people to have access to Core Maths within sixth forms and Colleges.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Only around 7% of A-level students not taking A-level maths are taking the alternative Core Maths qualification, according to analysis from the Royal Society. This leaves around 150,000 A-level students a year with little or no maths education after the age of 16.

Almost ten years since the introduction of Core Maths, the Royal Society has looked at the regional picture of provision to investigate why student take-up remains so low. Data from 2022 shows that less than a third of state-funded schools and colleges offer the subject, while almost 10% of local education authorities in England have no schools or colleges with Core Maths entries, making access to Core Maths a post-code lottery.

The Royal Society has commissioned an interactive map showing the take-up of Core Maths by local authority for the 2021/22 academic year.

Core Maths focuses on understanding mathematics and data in their broadest sense, in the real world, equipping students with the mathematical, statistics and data skills needed for their post-16 studies in most subjects, for personal development, financial awareness, further study in a wide range of programmes, and employment. Core Maths is designed to meet the substantial unmet demand from UK employers for quantitatively skilled people - including in arts, humanities, sciences and social sciences - and teaches skills at a higher level than can be gained through qualifications normally taken at age 16.

Sir Adrian Smith, President of the Royal Society, says: "In a world where data is everywhere and statistics underpin an increasing number of jobs, young people will require analytical skills more than ever before - but we're letting a huge proportion of them enter the workplace without sufficient maths, stats and data skills. The Prime Minister is committed to ensuring all young people study some form of maths to 18 - Core Maths can be a way of delivering that but at the moment, provision is just not there."

In the 2021-22 academic year only 11,683 students across 740 schools and colleges sat the Core Maths exam - an estimated 7% of the potential numbers. More than half of these schools and colleges entered ten candidates or fewer and geographically, provision is unevenly spread. This comes despite recommendations in a 2017 report for the Department for Education to ensure schools and colleges offer Core Maths to all (see Smith report (PDF)).

Smith said: "There is a huge proportion of students that are more than capable of studying Core Maths and there is no reason why they should not be encouraged to do so. We just need to make sure they have access to it. A comprehensive plan to support the significantly greater take up of Core Maths qualifications would be an important stepping stone towards achieving a goal of maths for all to 18."

According to Alasdair Staines, Course Leader for Core and GCSE Mathematics at The Sixth Form Bolton, awareness of the Core Maths remains low, relying mostly on word of mouth between students and siblings. However, uptake at the college has risen year on year with now over 220 students taking Core Maths. In a survey conducted by the college, 98% pupils rated their experience as positive, calling it: "challenging", "enjoyable", "helpful", "practical", "relevant" and "rewarding". Grades have also risen, with 50% A-B from 2022-23 from a cohort of grade 4-9 GCSE maths students.

Financial and personal development skills were rated highly in the surveys, and teachers highlighted the finance aspect as a major draw, from applying for and paying off student loans, to understanding their pay packets.

Staines added: "What we do find is a lot of our students haven't had the most positive experience of maths in secondary schools, which is one of the reasons they decided not to do A-level maths. They don't necessarily see the relevance of what they're doing mathematically in GCSE and how it links into other things. That's why, when we get them into Core Maths, we start with the finance straight away so they can start seeing the relevance."

Smith said: "Maths skills are not solely the preserve of mathematicians - just like the ability to read and write, these are essential, foundational skills that every young person should be equipped with if they are to leave the education system as well-rounded, active members of society. Core Maths is a viable and ready-made offer that can be rolled out across schools and colleges at a relatively low cost, but with invaluable gains."

The Royal Society has previously called on universities to incentivise prospective undergraduates to take Core Maths by including it in entry requirements, and for greater promotion of the value of Core Maths to employers (see 2022 statement (PDF)). While the general view of Core Maths among universities is positive, formal acceptance of the qualifications as part of entry requirements remains inconsistent. This lack of formal support and awareness is exacerbated by the fact that Core Maths results are not reported by JCQ (Joint Qualifications Council) alongside A-levels.

The need to raise awareness of Core Maths and provide necessary support, comes ahead of the Royal Society's upcoming Mathematical Futures Programme report. This will propose a new approach to mathematical education that encompasses a fusion of mathematics, statistics, data science and computer science. It will explore mathematical skills required by every citizen to thrive in society and offers pathways for the UK to develop mathematical and data education. A discussion paper (PDF) setting out the Society's vision was published in September 2023.

A list of Universities that show their recognition of Core Maths through offering students reduced entry grades for some of their degree programmes.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Some universities show their recognition of the importance of level 3 maths qualifications through the admissions information on their websites for some degree courses.

The following universities make alternative offers to students with Core Maths qualifications, who apply for some of their degree courses.

Aston University

University of Bath

University of Exeter

University of Sheffield

University of York

These universities recognise the benefits students gain from taking Core Maths, which will not only support their university studies, but also their future career and employment.

A summary of the alternative offers provided by these universities and recognition of Core Maths and other Level 3 maths qualifications by some other universities can be viewed below.

Aston University makes alternative offers for students who have a Core Maths qualification, across a wide range of subject areas, for example:

BSc Psychology and Sociology - offer reduced from ABB to BBB for students with grade B in Core Maths or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

BSc Economics - offer reduced from BBB to BBC for students with grade B in Core Maths or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

BSc Biology Science - offer reduced from BBB to BBC for students with grade B in Core Maths or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

BSc Politics and Social Policy - offer reduced from BBC to BCC for students with grade B in Core Maths or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

BSc History and English Literature - offer reduced from BBC to BCC for students with grade B in Core Maths or the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

Since 2020, the University of Bath has been using alternative offers that reduce one of the entry grades that are usually required for their degree courses. For example, where the typical offer is AAA, the alternative offer would be AAB. You can view details of their alternative offers on their website.

A summary of the alternative offers provided by the University of Bath:

All degrees that do not require A level Mathematics, such as Architecture, Business Courses, Biosciences, Chemistry, Pharmacy, Education, Health and Sport degrees, Languages, Politics, Psychology, and Social Sciences, include alternative offers based on achieving a grade B in a Core Maths qualification, AS or A level Mathematics or AS or A level Statistics, when it is studied in addition to three other subjects.

Degrees that do require A level Mathematics, such as Civil, Chemical, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics, Economics and Accounting & Finance, include alternative offers based on achieving a grade B in AS or A level Further Mathematics where this is studied in addition to three other subjects.

When an applicant is taking any of the following:

Extended Project Qualification (EPQ); Cambridge International Project Qualification (Cambridge IPQ); Core Maths (if A level Mathematics or Further Mathematics isn't studied as a full A level); AS level Mathematics (if A level Mathematics or Further Mathematics isn't studied as a full A level) or Welsh Baccalaureate Advanced Skills Challenge Certificate.

It will be considered alongside A levels and may attract an alternative offer in addition to the standard offer. If you are taking A levels, this would be a one grade drop from the standard offer. For example, an A in one of the above qualifications with AAB at A level (MBiol applicants).

The University of Sheffield makes alternative offers based on a reduction of one grade. For example: AAB would be reduced to ABB for students who attain a grade B or above in Core Maths across around 90 undergraduate degree courses including Geography, Biology, Politics, Architecture and Economics.

A reduction of one grade in the offer for students who attain a grade A or B in AS or A level Further Mathematics in addition to A level Mathematics across a range of over 100 undergraduate degree courses including Engineering, Chemistry, Computer Science and Mathematics.

The University of York welcomes the introduction of Core Maths qualifications, and some of its departments will make a reduced offer for their courses where such a qualification is taken alongside three A levels or equivalent. You can view more information on the University of York website (under Typical requirements, click United Kingdom and scroll down to Core Maths). These offers are applicable to around 40 subject areas, including Accounting, Business, Finance & Management, Social Work, Genetics, Linguistics, and Archaeology.

Other universities, whilst not making formal reduced offers, do offer strong encouragement for the study of Core Maths and recognise its usefulness in preparation for their degree courses. For example:

The University of Cambridge "recognise the value of Core Maths in strengthening mathematical ability".

Coventry University "would be pleased to receive applications from students offering these qualifications."

Keele University "welcomes Core Maths qualifications. Skills in Mathematical and statistical problem solving, data analysis and interpretation can provide a useful preparation for applicants wishing to progress to degrees in Business, Health, Psychology, Sciences and Social Sciences".

Loughborough University state that "Core Maths may be useful for a range of degree subjects where enhanced numerical or statistical skills are beneficial".

Queen Mary College, University of London "welcomes the introduction of the new Core Maths qualifications and believe they will be beneficial to students wishing to study Social Science subjects that may involve the use of applied mathematical skills, such as Business Management, Geography, and Politics."

The University of Warwick "welcomes the development of the Core Maths qualifications, and the additional relevant skills that the qualifications can provide in preparation for a range of our courses."

The AMSP offers guidance for universities on the advantages of recognising level 3 maths qualifications, including Core Maths, in admissions requirements.

If level 3 maths would be useful preparation for a degree course at your university, please consider including it in your published admissions criteria, perhaps in a similar way to the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

The AMSP is creating an exciting set of high-quality videos which showcase the maths in different careers. Each video is also linked to one or more activities, so your students can get a real taste of what the career may entail.

The videos are suitable for all students aged 11+. Each person that features tells their story from childhood right through to the present day. We have aimed to use a diverse set of role models and careers in the videos so that the collection hopefully contains something that every student can relate to, whether that is the persons background, their interests or their aspirations. Each video is around 5 minutes long and has a few questions asked throughout, which make perfect places to pause and think about maths and careers with your class.

"I was very impressed with the video. Susie strikes a nice balance between her background and honest thoughts about maths with how important they are for what she's doing now. It was good to see genuine examples of her work and to hear how she gets to feel good about the work (maths) that she's doing."
