Applying for Linguistics
Admissions Requirements
Since linguistics is interdisciplinary in nature, there are no specific requirements on subjects studied at A-level. Applicants with interests in both the arts and sciences are welcomed. Some experience of formal study of language, either through learning languages or A-level English Language would provide a useful background.
A typical offer would be A*AA at A-level or 7,7,6 (42+ overall) in the IB or the equivalent from other educational systems.
Written Assessment
All applicants who are selected for interview are required to take the university-wide pre-interview written assessment for Linguistics. Further information about this is available here.
Interviews
Applicants who are selected for interview will be interviewed in the second or third week of December. Each applicant will normally have two interviews.
