Minimum Qualifications
Entry into Undergraduate Degree programmes
If you are under 21 and wish to apply for direct-entry into an undergraduate honours degree programme (such as BBM or BIT), you will need to meet the College's minimum general entry requirement of three 'A' level passes or the equivalent in Fiji. If you don't meet this requirement you may be asked to enrol in a different programme.
If you are over 21 you are considered a 'mature age' student and will not necessarily be expected to meet the general entry requirement mentioned above. In certain circumstances, the College will admit mature age students with O Level qualifications and work experience, however, you must demonstrate your capacity to undertake degree-level work before we can offer you a place. The College may recommend you complete Higher National Certificate before you start the degree.
Entry into the Postgraduate Degree programme
The Lampeter MBA requires applicants to be at least 21 years of age with an overall pass in a prior undergraduate degree recognised by UK NARIC
English Proficiency
As a UK education institution, all course tuition is taught in English. As a result you are expected to meet the English proficiency requirements for the course you are interested in.
