RQF BTEC Nationals
Applications are assessed on an individual basis to ensure sufficient science content has been studied. We will consider the following:
RQF Level 3 BTEC National Extended Diploma DDD
RQF Level 3 BTEC National Diploma DD + A level grade B
RQF Level 3 BTEC National Extended Certificate D + A level grades BB
The required A levels for mixed BTEC and A level grade profiles depends on the science content studied in the BTEC.
Access to HE Diploma
Applications are assessed on an individual basis. Where an offer is made, our standard requirements are:
Access to HE Diploma 24 graded Level 3 credits at Distinction plus 21 graded Level 3 credits at Merit. 30 graded Level 3 credits must be from acceptable science units at grade Merit or above
If you aren't eligible for the above entry requirements, you might have a chance to explore pathway options at University of Nottingham. If you want to find out more, speak to our counsellors.
