Below is an approximate guide to entry requirements for students from Poland for admission to The University of Nottingham at the following levels.

For further information about our foundation options, please visit our undergraduate prospectus.
Find out how to apply.
Students should hold the new Matura with at least 3 subjects.
It is difficult to stipulate which grades you need because there seems to be no correlation between the exam grades achieved in each subject. However, we can recommend you the following:
A typical Matura requirement (with Polish advanced, English Advanced and History advanced) for a course with a BBB A level entry requirement is: minimum of 65% in Polish, minimum of 80% in English and a minimum of 60% in History.
Students taking A levels or the IB should refer to the online undergraduate prospectus for entry requirements.
Students taking APs or SATIIs should refer to entry requirements for the USA.
A licencjat / inzynier / bachelor degree obtained after 2003 (or higher qualification) from a recognised university will be considered for masters entry.
Typical minimum grade requirements from Polish universities are 3+ to 4+.
For more information, please see our postgraduate prospectus.
A masters and licencjat / inzynier / bachelor degree from a recognised university are usually required for PhD entry.
Exceptional students may be considered for PhD entry without a masters qualification.
For all research degrees, we recommend that you make initial enquiries with a potential supervisor or the relevant University of Nottingham school / department before applying. A research proposal is required when submitting your application.
To study at Nottingham, you will need to demonstrate a required level of English language proficiency. In addition to the more common language qualifications - such as IELTS, TOEFL, (I)GCSE, O level, IB and A and AS level English - the University also considers a number of other English language qualifications for admission.
Our Centre for English Language Education (CELE) offers a range of English language courses.
These courses are designed to prepare international students with the required language skills for academic study at The University of Nottingham.
Staff from the University of Nottingham make regular visits to your country. Come along and meet us, and we'll be happy to discuss any questions you have about living and studying in Nottingham.
