If you are currently completing a degree, we understand that your final grade may be higher than the interim grades or module/unit grades you have achieved during your studies to date.
We will consider your application if your interim grades are currently slightly lower than the programme's entry requirements and may make you an aspirational offer. This offer would be at the standard level, so you would need to achieve the standard entry requirements by the end of your degree. Specific module requirements would still apply.
We will also consider your application if your grades are slightly lower than the programme's entry requirements, if you have at least one of the following:
evidence of significant, relevant work experience in sectors such as finance, accounting, economics, or investment (a minimum of 2 years in a paid role is required)a postgraduate qualification or professional qualification (CFA, FRM or ACCA)If this is the case, please include your CV (curriculum vitae / résumé) when you apply, showing details of your relevant qualifications. Specific module requirements would still apply, which can be met in either undergraduate or postgraduate qualifications.
See international equivalent qualifications on the International Office website.
