Typically, you should have one of the following:

• A 2.1 Honours degree or 3.3/4.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) is in any discipline. Applications are welcomed from all education systems. If you studied your first degree outside the UK, see the international entry requirements.
• Significant professional or other relevant experience alongside evidence of prior alternative learning (such as professional qualifications or certifications).

If you require further information about our academic entrance requirements in relation to the education system you studied in, please contact ie@st-andrews.ac.uk.

Recognition of prior learning
Some students may be eligible for recognition of prior learning (RPL) based on their previous studies, such as DELTA. The International Education Institute considers applications for RPL on a case-by-case basis in line with the University's recognition of prior learning policy. To confirm the exact amount of credit you could be awarded, please forward your relevant transcript to ie@st-andrews.ac.uk.

English language requirements
You will need to be proficient in the English language. Information about English language entry requirements for these programmes is available on the university's postgraduate English language requirements page.

Applicants who have not met the English language entry requirements at the point of application may be made offers that are conditional on these requirements being met before enrolment. Offer-holders may then use the University’s Academic English Pre-sessional courses to meet the English language requirements.
