Applying to Abertay

Entry requirements

You must have achieved the minimum number of ECTS credits in relevant subjects at an EU Erasmus Charter university as follows:

  • for second year entry, at least 60 ECTS credits
  • for third year entry, at least 120 ECTS credits
  • for fourth year entry, at least 180 ECTS credits
  • for Masters degree entry, at least 240 ECTS credits

It is sometimes possible to ‘change your major’ subjects but this can only happen if your previous studies provided a sufficient foundation or where the UAD degree is designed to be studied by students who have previously studied another major.

You must also have ability in the English Language at least equivalent to our minimum requirements but it is not necessary to have obtained these certificates.  The relevant person at your Home Institution must provide a reference and sign the application form to confirm that you have ability in English which is, or is expected to be, at or above this standard prior to enrolment at the University of Abertay Dundee. The reference should also confirm the subjects that you studied and the assessment grades achieved to date in your studies at your home institution. 

How do I know if my previous studies are ‘relevant’?

The syllabus content of all UAD degrees can be accessed by clicking on Syllabus Content in the left-hand menu. Advice can also be sought from your home university or from the University of Abertay Dundee.
