How it compares with other film courses
The marker shows the typical (median) film course. How we measure
Who gets in
UCAS points of students who started, with the A-level grades worth the same points. These totals include every qualification students had (a fourth A-level, EPQ, AS levels and so on), so many people here had a lower offer than their total suggests.
- Under 96 ptsbelow CCC35%
- 96–111 ptsCCC–BCC0%
- 112–127 ptsBBC–BBB9%
- 128–143 ptsABB–AAB13%
- 144–159 ptsAAA–A*AA9%
- 160+ ptsA*A*A or more35%
Most students here apply with Highers and Advanced Highers, which earn more UCAS points than A-levels, so these figures look higher than A-level offers usually are.
What graduates earn
The 15-month figure comes from the Graduate Outcomes survey and covers graduates in full-time work. The 3 and 5-year figures come from tax records and include everyone in work, including part-time, so they can be lower than the 15-month figure.
