CONVERSION PROGRAMME

A minimum second class honours bachelor degree (2.2 grade or higher) in a discipline other than business or marketing, or equivalent. Selection may be by interview.

Note: Due to the considerable competition for our postgraduate programmes satisfying the minimum entry requirement is not a guarantee of a place. Depending on the programme of study applications will be assessed based on your academic grades and may also take into account your work/life experience. Applicants may also be required to attend for interview for specific programmes.

Please note. If you do not yet have your final degree results this will not hinder your application as we are happy to issue conditional offer letters in such circumstances.
