10+ points at A/AS Level (for applications who completed their A/AS Levels before Summer 2002); 24 points (Pass) International Baccalaureate (Highers, all at level 4) 65% European Baccalaureate; 50% merits in year 2 of a BTEC National Diploma, relevant Access course or

Students that apply to enter Level 2 or 3 of the programme may be admitted through normal Accreditation of Experiential Learning (AEL) or Accreditation of Certificated Learning (ACL) processes.
A student may not be admitted with credit for more than two-thirds of the total requirement for the award, or half where all such credit is by experiential learning. For an explanation of qualifications, have a look at our IAG page on this site www.creativeway.org.uk/quals.
A Progression Agreement is a formal arrangement between two or more
education providers. It spells out what a learner needs to do to be
considered for a place on a named programme of study. Progression Agreements
may vary in the conditions they specify but they all aim to give guaranteed
pathways into higher education.
