Entry requirements

Qualification requirements

UCAS Tariff - 64 points

Applicants will require 64 UCAS points or 60 Access-to-HE Credits (of which a minimum of 45 must be at Level 3). Applicants are required to hold English and Maths GCSE (or equivalent) at Grade C/4. Non-standard offer Non-standard entry is intended to support students who may not meet the standard academic entry requirements of a HE programme, normally Level 3 qualifications which attract UCAS points (for instance, A-levels or BTEC Level 3 courses). An applicant must be able to demonstrate recent work/experience in the relevant sector which would give them skills and knowledge comparable to applicants with Level 3 qualifications. All such non-standard applicants will be interviewed, set an appropriate piece of work, a 1000-word piece of writing that focuses on a specific genre of music or the work of an important practitioner, and a judgement made considering their academic potential and relevant work/experience. The interview process will review any previous experience that would be considered appropriate, whilst the written task will enable us to assess a level of academic writing and study skills.
