The University of Bristol welcomes applications from international students, and we accept a wide range of qualifications for undergraduate and postgraduate study.

If you have studied at a school, college or university outside the UK, please select your country below for information about our typical entry requirements, scholarships and education representatives. If your country or qualification is not listed, please contact us for advice.

Entry requirements vary for each course. Please check our undergraduate or postgraduate course listings for details of specific requirements.

Some countries’ degrees or awarding universities should be accredited for us to be able to consider them in an application for postgraduate study. Where this is the case, this will be stated in the country-specific guidance below.
