Information for students from Taiwan

Entry requirements to our bachelors degree programmes vary depending on your chosen course. However, as a minimum requirement, you will typically need one of the following for year one entry:

• a completed recognised foundation
• one year of university study at a recognised Taiwanese university with a good grade average (around 72-75%)
• a junior college degree (2,3 or 5 year) with good grades (80%+) from a recognised Taiwanese junior college (subject to meeting the required module background)
• A levels or the IB – students taking these qualifications should refer to the online  undergraduate prospectus for entry requirements
• APs or SATIIs – students taking these qualifications should refer to entry requirements for the USA
• Students taking an Australian curriculum should refer to entry requirements for Australia

For year two entry, each application will be assessed based on the content of the courses studied in Taiwan and how closes they match with the programme being applied for at Nottingham. The following can be used to meet minimum criteria:

• two or more years of study at a recognised university with grades of 72-75% (subject to meeting the required module background)
• a 5 year junior college degree with exceptional grades (85%+) from a recognised Taiwanese junior college may be considered for year 2 (subject to meeting the required module background)

Applicants should hold a masters degree of a good standard from a recognised university in a relevant subject area.

See the masters section for guidance on the grades we typically require from Taiwanese universities. These will vary depending on the university where you have studied and the course you are applying for at Nottingham.

You should identify possible supervisors at Nottingham before applying and prepare a research proposal to submit with your application.
