• 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.
