A- Levels Universities

Is there any age limit to do A-levels or for University?

Is there any age limit to do A-levels or for University ?? Like any maximum age after that you can not sit in the exam for A-levels and how many times can you take the test and is there any age limit for Universities ? Like after that age you can not get into a University ??

Can you get into university with 2 A-levels?

you can do that
but it will be hard
some universities ask for something such as 220 ucas points .
but that means a B and an A
others may ask for 180
but it's risky as most universities wont have such low ucas requirements

I am currently also doing Alevels and I only do 2. but my college offers a class called Welsh Baccalaureate which gives 120 ucas points

hope i helped

How do you apply to US universities using A level?

Yes, you apply to US universities with your AS Level grades, your GCSE grades and your predicted A Level grades, which should be included by your school in your transcript.The offer you receive is not conditional, so theoretically you do not need to achieve your predicted grades at the end of the year. However, they reserve the right to rescind your offer if you don't “keep a high academic standing,” so it is not too uncommon to have your offer rescinded if you perform badly at the end of the year, but it is less strict than at the UK universities. For example, say your predicted grades are A*AA which is also your offer for your firm UK choice. If you get AAA, you have missed your UK offer, but it is very unlikely you would lose your offer to your US choice. You would probably have to get at least BBB or lower to lose your place.Concerning how you actually go about applying, most universities use the Common Application (similar to UCAS). Information about requirements such as standardised testing and school reports/transcripts can be found on the individual admissions sites for each university.

Do universities look at A levels and the IGCSE results?

Yep they do.They could be used to assess eligibility for a uni course. The majority of university courses look for at least Cs in GCSE English, maths and perhaps science. Some university courses go further and ask for specific subjects at GCSE, with certain grades.A management degree at the University of Leeds, for example, specifies that you must have at least Bs in English language and maths under your belt, while a psychology degree at the University of Bristol asks for ‘maths, English and science at grade B, but grade A preferred’.But don’t let a disappointing GCSE performance put you off applying to the university course you really want, though – a good AS-level performance, for instance, could outweigh a set of weaker GCSE results.  Plus, with the current A-level reforms, universities could use your GCSE grades more than before when deciding whether to accept you or not – so keep this in mind if uni is in your sights.

If one has A levels, are the SATs necessary for US universities applications?

They may not be necessary.There are no US universal university admission policies. Each college, major and university may make up its own requirements.There are many “test optional” colleges. There are many that admit anyone who applies (“open admission”.)There are some that request ACT or SAT, not both, though if you take both you may send both scores if they are good.Some schools require SAT subject tests (“SAT II” tests), but they will often waive those requirements if finances are a problem, as SAT IIs don’t offer fee waivers.Some schools require you to take Accuplacer or Compass tests in order to matriculate; you take those on campus and they are usually found at community colleges (leading to the associate’s degree.)Sometimes, admissions requirements are different for state residents, out of state residents, and internationals.This information is easily and readily available on each school’s website and college catalogues.My children are applying to universities, so I am very familiar with the wide variety of school requirements.Bottom line: if you want to attend school in the US, SOMEONE will take you. Guaranteed. Even if you haven’t finished high school. Even if you can’t read! If you have a disability like blindness or dyslexia, someone will read to you and take notes for you in class.It's not hard. It requires persistence and some money, but college (with few exceptions) is not academically difficult, and admissions is less so.

What UK universities do NOT require AP (A-Level) classes?

I've been doing my research and I keep finding that most UK universities require three AP scores or three A Level scores. Are there any that don't require these scores? I don't need to get into the best universities in the UK. I just want a chance to study abroad. I'll keep looking to see if I can find any that don't require these scores. If you know of any, I would really appreciate your help.

Can I go to a university in America without A levels?

Yes, certainly.No American university mandates A-levels. If you take them, you may get university credit for some; it varies from school to school.Whether you are a US- or foreign-educated applicant, universities want to see standardized testing to understand your strengths and weaknesses relative to other candidates. That means taking the ACT and/or the SAT.In fact, many American universities don’t require ANY testing whatsoever. I suggest that students take the ACT or SAT because it provides useful information to the admission committee, but it is not mandatory at many schools, even at elites.In addition, universities want to understand how you fit into the freshman class and how you will make a contribution to the university. That’s the holistic part of the application. That’s where your extracurriculars, athletics, music and personal character and upbringing play a part.
