Entry Requirement 

Academic Requirements:

Year 1 entry
96-112 points, including a creative subject, from any combination of recognised Level 3 qualifications. We also consider students without formal qualifications but with evidence of practical art and design experience at an appropriate level. Students are invited to bring portfolios along on applicant days to show creative skills in art and design.

Interviews
Eligible applicants are normally invited for interviews. The interview helps us determine your potential to succeed and set appropriate entry conditions matched to your personal circumstances and the demands of the course. The interview also enables you to see our excellent facilities, meet staff and students, and learn more about studying at Teesside University.

If you are unable to attend an interview at the University, we can organise a virtual interview over the phone or online. If you have a portfolio of work to submit in support of your application, this can be sent to us electronically.

Normally GCSE English language and maths at grade C, or 4 under the new grading system. Other alternative equivalent qualifications may be considered.

Non-EU international students who need a student visa to study in the UK should check our web pages on UKVI-compliant English language requirements. The University also provides pre-sessional English language courses to help you meet the English language requirements.

We may be able to help you meet the requirements for admission by offering you the opportunity to study one or more Summer University modules, some of which can be studied by distance learning.
