Entry requirements

SQA Highers Standard: Applicants that present with ABBB will usually receive an unconditional offer. Highers in Mathematics and one Science subject are required. Where we have more applicants than places we may need to ask for more than the minimum so continued engagement in school is recommended. Foundation Apprenticeship: One FA is equivalent to a Higher at A. It cannot replace any required subjects. Note: We do not double count a Higher and Advanced Higher in the same subject, but we do consider that a B grade at Advanced Higher is equivalent to an A grade at Higher. National 5 at C or above in English and Mathematics and one Science are required. A LEVELS Three A Levels at BBB. A Levels at BB to include Mathematics and one Science subject. GCSE at C/4 or above in English or English Language, Mathematics and one Science subject are required. IRISH LEAVING CERTIFICATE Five subjects at Higher, with two at H2 and three at H3. H2 in Mathematics and one Science subject required. O4 in English, Mathematics and one Science subject are also required. INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE 34 points with 6, 6, 5 at HL. 6 points at HL in Mathematics and one Science subject required. SL or HL in English is also required.
