Page reviewed:
05/06/2025
If there are more eligible applicants for a course or programme than there are places, a selection process will take place.
Applications for Master’s programmes will be assessed based on results from previous university studies. Once admitted to a Master’s programme, when applying for courses within it, the same merit system is generally used.
Applications for Bachelor’s programmes will be assessed based on applicants’ final school grades. Once admitted to a Bachelor’s programme, when applying for courses within it, the merit system is usually based on the number of credits taken within the programme.
