Academic entry qualification indicator (undergraduate)

The University of St Andrews uses contextual data for applicants in the UK to indicate which of our undergraduate academic entry requirements are most likely to be relevant. There are three categories of entry requirements:

• Standard

Unless you are a widening access student, you will need these grades to be considered. - Minimum

If you are a widening access student, you will need these grades to be considered. - Gateway

If you are a widening access student, you may also be eligible for a Gateway programme. You will need these grades to be considered.

This indicator will tell you which category of entry requirements you will need to look at on our subject pages. This is based on the information that you provide. A further assessment will take place when you submit an application.

Asylum Seeker (Optional)

An asylum seeker is a person who has asked the government to recognise their refugee status and is waiting to hear the outcome of their application.
