United States of America

For students studying in the USA, typical offers for entry onto undergraduate level courses are based on obtaining 3.2/4.0 GPA in the High School Graduation Diploma, in addition to a combination of any three of the following:

  • Advanced Placement (AP) Exam
  • IB Higher Levels
  • College level class credit (should normally be taken in Grade 12 for one semester, and be equivalent to 3 credits/units in an academic subject)
  • Honors classes (should be taken for a full academic year in either Grade 11 or Grade 12)

Where courses have a specific A Level subject requirement this must be achieved in the relevant AP exam or IB Higher Level. Where AP is used to meet an A Level Maths subject requirement AP Calculus BC would be required.

 

A level Grade AP Exam Honors or College Class
A* 5 A+
A 5 A / A-
B 4 B+ / B
C 3 B-

For programmes that require achievement in GCSE Maths, we would normally look for a score of ‘570’ or higher in SAT I Math or ACT with a minimum score of 27 overall and 26 in each component.

To satisfy English language requirements we consider a range of qualifications. Please see the Approved Qualifications table on the English Language page for further details
