As such, those meeting the entry requirements with a 2:1 will be viewed more favourably. Applicants with a high 2:2 who wish to apply will need to ensure they include their grades for each module for all years of study on their application, or send a transcript of all years of study via King's Apply shortly after applying.
 

GCSE requirements

Functional Skills English level 2 at Pass and Functional Skills Maths level 2 at Pass are considered equivalent to GCSE English Language and GCSE Mathematics. It is highly desirable for applicants to have studied Biology or Human Science to GCSE level or equivalent.

International equivalents can also be considered. If you are an international student who did not study GCSEs/IGCSEs as part of your qualifications, then we will look for evidence of equivalency in your studies.
