Entry Requirements
For entry to all our programmes you will need to demonstrate that your qualifications meet the University of Bath entrance requirements. These are general guidelines only and exact requirements will vary on an individual basis and from subject to subject. Some programmes may require you to have studied certain subjects before coming to Bath. For some of our postgraduate programmes there may be additional non-academic entrance requirements such as relevant work experience. For all our programmes you will also need to satisfy the University's English language requirements. If you are unsure about which level of study or how to complete your application please refer to our Your application section. If you have taken exams from another country's national education system please refer to that country page for details.
If you cannot find what you are looking for or would like further information or advice please contact the International Office and we will be happy to help.
Undergraduate degrees
The University welcomes applications from students taking A Level examinations and the International Baccalaureate (IB) for direct entry into its undergraduate programmes. Details of the grades or points required can be found in our undergraduate prospectus. Application details are available through http://www.ucas.ac.uk/studyuk/applying.html
The University will consider students who have successfully completed Standard X and XII for direct entry onto our undergraduate programmes. Students are expected to acheive an average of 80% and above in the national boards (ICSE and CBSE) examinations with 85% minimum in a particular subject - usually Maths or a Science subject- and an average of 70% and above through the West Bengal State Board.
Students who have taken exams through other state boards will be considered if they have outstanding marks.

Masters level
Holders of a four year Bachelors degree of a good first class of 60% and above, when awarded from a recognised central or state university, will be considered for entry into a Masters degree.

Masters scholarships
The University of Bath Scholarships Scheme 2008 offers 75 scholarships of £3000 for students on post-graduate taught programmes. Candidates must complete a separate application form once they have fimly accepted an offer from Bath. For full details see here.
A number of external funding bodies exist to support Masters level study in the UK and any applicant seeking support is also strongly advised to explore potential sources of financial aid available in their own country. In many cases the British Council will have a number of awards on offer through the Chevening scheme and further details may be obtained from the British Council in your country (http://www.britishcouncil.org/ecs/contact/countries.htm). Alternatively, there are international agencies, government departments, charitable organisations and private companies that may be able to provide financial aid for certain programmes of study and all are worth exploring.
Research level
A Masters level qualification from a prestigious university will in many cases be required for PhD entry. Evidence of some research experience (for example through a Masters degree project) is expected. Certified transcripts of all previous degree-level studies must accompany the application.
Some departments at the University of Bath now also offer the New Route PhD. This is a four-year programme that combines taught and research elements and may enable you to obtain a Masters degree (MRes) after one year. Applicants to the New Route PhD will not normally be required to hold a Masters degree when they apply to the University. Further information about New Route PhD can be found at http://www.bath.ac.uk/grad-office/newroutephd.
Minimum English language requirement: IELTS 6.5 or TOEFL 580 (paper test); 237 (computer test); 92 (internet-based test)
