Admission Requirements
7.5+
Standard entry requirements apply. A typical offer is BCC at A-Level or DMM at BTEC. You will be expected to have achieved GCSE Mathematics and English (or equivalent) at grade C/4 or above.
We welcome international applications and applications from students with a range of non-traditional educational or professional qualifications who have an active interest in the study and practice of journalism.
ANY students joining with advanced standing in L5 (Year 2) or L6 (Year 3) will be awarded BA (Hons) Journalism (without BJTC accreditation) rather than BA (Hons) Multimedia Journalism. If the programme team feels that a student in this position was still eligible for the accredited BA Multimedia Journalism award title (based on modules studied at a previous institution) then this would need to be documented and approved. We envisage that this would only be relevant in specific circumstances (e.g. a student transferring from a BJTC accredited degree course at a different institution at the end of L4). It would not be relevant for any international/partner students coming in at L6. The modules studied for the non-accredited BA Journalism award would be the same as those for the accredited BA Multimedia Journalism.
