Entry requirements

To be enrolled onto a PhD programme, it is generally expected that you hold a Masters degree. For degrees studied in the UK system, your undergraduate degree should be at 2.1 level and/or your Masters degree at Merit level, in a relevant subject. For applicants with a degree from the USA, the minimum GPA sought is 3.0 out of 4.0. For applicants with a degree from China, the minimum weighted average score is 80 out 100. Applicants with other international qualifications should meet the equivalent of the above UK minimum entry requirement. Please note that admission to UNNC is very competitive, and that meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee an offer of a place. At the School of Education and English we currently receive a very large number of queries about PhD study, and the majority of prospective applicants are unfortunately unable to be matched with an available supervisor.
