Admission review process
听

The minimum requirements are听three A-Levels (or equivalent),听in three different subjects*, or two A-level and two AS subjects,听in three different subjects. Admission is competitive and听applicants who present the minimum requirements are not guaranteed admission.

*听Note that Maths and Further Maths, while two separate A-Levels, are considered to be one subject.

  • If completing Upper Form VI, you will be considered on: (I)GCSEs, Form VI grades, AS 1(or modular/unit) results (if written) and predicted AL results. If you have completed only lower Form VI with AS and have听appropriate GCSE examinations with clearly superior marks, you may听be considered for admission exceptionally, on an individual basis.
  • If you are attending a school where it is听the policy to sit all International A-Level examinations at the end of the second year (and not sit for unit/module examinations and/or not听claim AS qualifications at the end of AL1), then your school must听communicate this information clearly to 海角社区, either by letter or in its school profile. If written, AS results must be submitted.
  • For Caribbean students writing through CXC, you will be considered on: CSEC,听CAPE Unit 1, Unit听2 (predicted or final), and school results.

All grades are taken into consideration in determining admission, including those of failed or repeated courses.

If admitted, you are expected to maintain your level of academic performance through to the completion of your pre-海角社区 studies.

A maximum of 30 credits of听advanced standing听may be granted for final official results.
