Undergraduate entry requirements
Applicants from Libya who have completed a Higher Technician Diploma with minimum GPA of 65% may be considered for entry onto the first year of an undergraduate degree. Students who have the Secondary Education Certificate plus one year of a Bachelor’s degree from a recognised university with a minimum GPA of 65% may also be considered.
Applicants with the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma or A-levels will be considered for direct admission to our undergraduate degree programmes. IB requirements range from 28 to 30, depending on the course.
Applicants with other qualifications will be considered for a four-year course with foundation programme in their field of interest. Upon successful completion of the Foundation Year, students will automatically progress on to our three-year degree. Alternatively applicants can opt for a Foundation course for entry onto undergraduate programmes at the university.
