A-level
A AA to include both History and English Literature, the A* must be in one or other of those subjects (English Language and Literature will be also accepted in lieu of English Literature, but we will not accept English Language alone). General Studies is welcomed but will not form part of the offer.

The University recognises the benefit of the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and the opportunities it provides for applicants to develop independent study and research skills. We strongly encourage you to provide information about the EPQ in your personal statement and at interview. For this programme, as well as the regular conditions of offer, we may make students who are currently taking or completed the EPQ an alternative offer. For this course it would be AAA including History and English Literature plus the Extended Project at Grade A.

A-level exams should be taken at the same sitting, after no more than two years of study. If you have studied an advanced curriculum, where the examinations are spread over three years, consideration for an offer will be at the discretion of the admissions tutor. We may also require further information, in order to make an informed judgment on your application
