<strong>Qualifications</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Entrance</strong><br />
The following list was published in May 2013. It is reviewed and updated annually and there<strong>for</strong>e is<br />
subject to amendment in future years. You are asked to note that applications will be considered on<br />
the basis <strong>of</strong> the list that is in effect at the time the application is received in the Admissions Office.<br />
This section lists some <strong>of</strong> the qualifications that have been recognised by the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>London</strong><br />
<strong>International</strong> Programmes as satisfying either the General <strong>Entrance</strong> Requirements or part <strong>of</strong> the<br />
General <strong>Entrance</strong> Requirements or the entrance requirements <strong>for</strong> one particular programme.<br />
<strong>Qualifications</strong> that satisfy the General <strong>Entrance</strong> Requirements do not necessarily satisfy the specific<br />
programme requirements (where applicable). The specific programme requirements are considered<br />
separately and may not appear in this list.<br />
Overlapping rule: please note it is not possible to count the same subject more than once <strong>for</strong><br />
admission purposes. For example if an applicant has 3 GCSE/GCE O levels and 2 further GCE A levels<br />
where Mathematics is passed within both then the <strong>University</strong> can only count Mathematics once <strong>for</strong><br />
admission purposes. If you require further in<strong>for</strong>mation then please contact the <strong>University</strong>: contact us<br />
Acceptable: any reference made to an acceptable institution within this document means acceptable<br />
to the <strong>University</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>London</strong>. If you require further in<strong>for</strong>mation then please contact the <strong>University</strong>:<br />
contact us<br />
Please note: this list is given <strong>for</strong> guidance purposes only and the <strong>International</strong> Programmes reserves<br />
the right to amend it at any time.<br />
The qualifications are listed by country and in accordance with the following key:<br />
O is equivalent to GCSE/GCE O level<br />
A (or AS) is equivalent to GCE A/AS level<br />
S satisfies the specific programme requirement <strong>for</strong> the programme named or satisfies specific<br />
programme and General <strong>Entrance</strong> Requirement <strong>for</strong> the programme named<br />
G satisfies the general entrance requirements as a whole (please note that the programme specific<br />
requirements, where applicable, also have to be met e.g. Mathematics)<br />
