Overview of UCAS Tariff Points for Apprenticeships

For the 2026 cycle, we are introducing a new Tariff points structure that now includes Level 3 apprenticeships alongside A-levels, T Levels, and other post-16 qualifications. These changes aim to support apprentices' progression to higher education by creating a unified system that helps universities and colleges evaluate apprenticeship qualifications against traditional academic routes. This guide provides an overview of the recent changes, including the new calculation method, key points for providers, and the impact on apprenticeship pathways into higher education.
