My girlfriend is moving from Australia to UK and wants to go to Uni in the UK..?

Question

Can she get in a uni in this country with her VCE's? (equivalent to GCSE's in Australia), or will she have to take extra courses to get a UK Gcse grade / A level? Can uni's accept any other grading systems for applicants coming from abroad?

Answer 1

yup i'd think so.

Answer 2

If she has done australia's equivalent to A-levels then she can. If not then she could do them at a UK college or sixth form before uni- it would take two years.

Answer 3

she will need international baccalaureates (IB) to get into unis here . . . but i checked on UCL website, and they accept good grades with VCE's . . . but she should contact the university for individual needs . . . and it depends on the course aswell, different unis want different things . . .

heres a list of schools that offer them . . .
