General entry requirements
Applications to our Economics degrees are assessed primarily on the basis of the applicant’s predicted/current grades and past academic record.
Optionally, applicants are encouraged to sit the Test of Mathematics for University Admission (TMUA) .
Applicants to Economics and Management LN12 are not required to sit the TMUA. Those who sit this optional test and achieve the highest scores will be considered for a reduced offer of AAA.
Applicants who do not sit TMUA will be considered alongside those who sit the test and achieve a lower score.
Please note that TMUA is not used in the assessment of applicants who are eligible for a Contextual Offer – see our Contextual Offers webpage to check your eligibility.
For further details including test dates and how to register for TMUA, please see the TMUA at Warwick webpage .
