Africa - Entry requirements

Entry to undergraduate study

Students from Africa are admitted to the University of Edinburgh with a range of qualifications.

Applicants with qualifications other than those listed above will usually be required to complete a Foundation Year before entering the University.

For entry to most Postgraduate Taught or Research degrees, the minimum requirement is a good undergraduate degree from a recognised university.

Each course may have further specific entry requirements. All applicants must meet these requirements.

You can also obtain further guidance on admissions requirements from staff in the Admissions Offices.

There are over 400 students from across 26 different African countries currently studying at the University of Edinburgh.
