Sounds of Intent

You are usually expected to hold a good second-class honours degree (or above) from an approved university or college in the UK, or a recognised degree from abroad. Advice on recognition may be obtained from the Admissions Manager. Non-graduates with appropriate professional or other qualifications may be accepted on an individual basis by course conveners; details on who to contact can be found in the full details on each course page. Applicants who do not meet the usual entry criteria may be admitted as associate students in the first instance. Progression to registration on the full award will then depend on successful completion of one or two courses, as determined by the course convener.
