At the University of Suffolk, we consider the full application as part of determining if you will succeed on our courses. We are therefore flexible where possible and might still be able to accept you if you do not meet your expected grades. As part of this, we make contextual offers, where we consider the factors that might have an impact on achievement. This means that some applicants will receive an offer of one grade below our published entry requirements. Please see our website.
