Full-time courses across our five faculties typically last for three to four years, although some degrees such as medicine and architecture have a longer duration.

Undergraduate entry requirements

Our Undergraduate Prospectus lists entry requirements for A levels and International Baccalaureate students for each course.

Students from Thailand are usually required to successfully complete a recognised foundation course for entry to our undergraduate programmes. As well as our own foundation courses, we accept foundation certificates from selected providers in the UK.

Students who have completed at least one year at a university and achieved good grades can be considered for direct entry to our undergraduate degree courses.

This summary is provided as guidance and requirements may vary for individual courses, which often require high grades in relevant subjects.

Students taking APs or SATIIs should refer to entry requirements for the USA.

"I decided to pursue a PhD degree at the University of Nottingham because the University has a high reputation in research as well as a top-ranked School of Pharmacy. Academic staff members have an expertise in the field and the university staff is very generous and helpful. The campuses are beautiful and peaceful."
