Demand for places may mean that you are asked to achieve particular grades from these qualifications. There is also a guide to the academic entry requirements for each course, but you should also read the course entries which may give detail of further requirements. The University of Central Lancashire welcomes the changes to post sixteen education as part of Curriculum 2000. We positively encourage a mix of qualifications at post-sixteen in the belief that this will better prepare all students for the duration of their Higher Education experience. We would like to stress that all applicants are considered individually and that their motivation and commitment to succeed are considered crucial to gaining an offer of a place.
Academic achievement is only one of many factors taken into account when assessing an application.
Individual course requirements vary and these will be carefully detailed in the 2002 prospectus and in the standard UCAS publications. Some courses will specify study in particular subjects, many will specify achievement at a particular grade, and many will require an 18 unit profile as opposed to the minimum 12 units. The additional units may also be made up from any subjects. Individual course requirements will vary and specific grades or subjects may be required. Assessments taken either through the modular or linear routes will be equally acceptable.
