Entry Requirement Tab
Inserted paragraph text under the heading "General entry requirements":
A successful application to this programme requires the application to be strong in all areas, including:
- Predicted/Current Grades
- Past Academic Record
- Personal Statement
- School reference
In the A Levels expanding box, changed the GCSE text to:
General GCSE requirements
You will need a strong set of GCSE grades including the majority at A (or 7) and A* (or 8-9). Your GCSE (or equivalent) English Language and Mathematics grades should be no lower than B (or 6). We also consider your overall GCSE subject profile. Find out more about our entry requirements and the qualifications we accept.
Added new text (within the A Level expanding box)
Subject Combinations
- We do not specify a subject mix at A Level, but we particularly value applicants who can demonstrate a strong breadth of study.
- We are looking for students with strong mathematical ability and A-level Mathematics or equivalent is therefore required for this programme.
- Further Maths and Economics are not essential, although they are fine subject choices for a student considering Economics at degree level. We treat them as any other strong A level subject: they have no special status.
- We will only look at your top three grades (including Mathematics). A fourth A Level will not be considered.

The fact that the curriculum covers a broad range of subjects and gives students chances to apply their knowledge through research projects and real-world case studies surprised me..” Eleni, BSc Economics
