You have BTEC qualifications

How Clearing works if you have taken BTECs either on their own or combined with A-levels.

Primary page content

We welcome a range of UK Level 3 qualifications for our degrees. We consider the BTEC Extended Diploma (taken from 2010) or National Extended Diploma (from 2016) for entry to our undergraduate programmes. We also consider a combination of BTEC diplomas with other Level 3 qualifications, for example:

  • BTEC Level 3 Diploma/National Diploma with one A-level
  • BTEC Level 3 Subsidiary Diploma/National Extended Certificate with two A-levels

You can find our entry requirements for the BTEC Diploma on each of our programme pages. If you have taken the BTEC Diploma prior to 2010, please contact our Admissions team.

We warmly welcome our BTEC applicants at Goldsmiths. And we find many people take a mix of BTECs and A-levels. We’re a very friendly bunch, so if you’re not sure about whether your qualification will be accepted, please ask us.

Jennifer, Head of Admissions
