Alternative offers for MOOCs
For some subject areas, completing a MOOC may make you eligible for an alternative offer to study.
If you successfully complete the relevant MOOC, as outlined in your offer letter, you'll be eligible for a reduction of up to one A level grade (or equivalent) below the typical offer.
You'll still need to meet the essential subject requirements of your offer, as well as any English language requirements.
We'll make our assessment at the point of application. If an alternative MOOC offer hasn't been made, it means you're not eligible for a reduction.
This is the case for some non-standard qualifications and foundation programmes. If we have concerns about your ability to undertake the programme, we reserve the right to only make the typical offer.
