How it compares with other sports science courses
The marker shows the typical (median) sports science course. How we measure
Who gets in
UCAS points of students who started, with the A-level grades worth the same points. These totals include every qualification students had (a fourth A-level, EPQ, AS levels and so on), so many people here had a lower offer than their total suggests.
- Under 96 ptsbelow CCC0%
- 96–111 ptsCCC–BCC2%
- 112–127 ptsBBC–BBB10%
- 128–143 ptsABB–AAB10%
- 144–159 ptsAAA–A*AA12%
- 160+ ptsA*A*A or more65%
Most students here apply with Highers and Advanced Highers, which earn more UCAS points than A-levels, so these figures look higher than A-level offers usually are.
What graduates earn
The 15-month figure comes from the Graduate Outcomes survey and covers graduates in full-time work. The 3 and 5-year figures come from tax records and include everyone in work, including part-time, so they can be lower than the 15-month figure.
