At Manchester, our admissions decisions are made at School-level. Our academic Schools have assessed the suitability of each T-Level qualification for admission to the University – you can find this in the selection criteria of each course or programme.
Applicants must be appropriately prepared to cope with the demands of our courses and programmes. Sometimes subject-specific knowledge is required, and this may not be covered sufficiently within the T-Level.

Wave 4 T-Levels
The University does not currently accept T Level qualifications introduced in Wave 4:
- Agriculture, Land Management and Production
- Animal Care and Management
- Craft and Design
- Legal
- Media, Broadcast and Production.
We will continue to review the suitability of these qualifications for entry to the University and update this page accordingly. Applicants with questions about a specific course and their individual portfolio of qualifications should contact the admissions team in the relevant academic School or Department for clarification on whether their qualifications are acceptable for entry.
Additional qualifications
Level 3 qualifications
We understand it is unlikely that you will be studying an additional level 3 qualification (such as A Levels) while studying a T-Level qualification, due to the T-Level size and structure.
Therefore we have decided not to set entry requirements that require a T-Level and an additional level 3 qualification for courses where a T-Level alone is not suitable.
However, you may have previously achieved an additional level 3 qualification or chosen to study towards one alongside your T-level. Where this is the case, your portfolio of qualifications may be suitable for entry.
GCSEs
In addition to a T-Level qualification, you'll need a minimum of Grade C/4 in level 2 English Language and Mathematics (GCSE). Some of our courses require additional GCSEs in specific subjects and/or with higher grades. You can find the GCSE requirements in the selection criteria for each course/ programme.
