A secondary education degree or a university degree awarded by a recognised educational institution provided it grants access to an equivalent programme (academic bachelor programme) in that country.
Applicants who have been awarded the General Certificate of Education (GCE) can be eligible for admission if they can prove to have passed at least three A-Level subjects. Of these A-Level subjects, at least two have to be relevant (e.g. mathematics is a must with an additional physics or chemistry course). The third subject is preferably also relevant (e.g. another scientific course as mentioned above or an economics or business course), but can be something unrelated as well. If the GCE A-Level certificates have been obtained in a country that has not ratified the Lisbon Recognition Convention, candidates are required to submit an additional proof of proficiency in mathematics (SAT/ACT, see below). All applicants also need to meet the English language proficiency requirements (see below).
