Eligibility criteria

Some postgraduate courses have pre-requisite requirements and require a relevant or related degree, interview, recognised work experience hours or portfolio review. Such postgraduate courses may be precluded from being guaranteed and automatically offered. However, we will assess your application in relation to this when submitted.

For example:

A Psychology BSc (Hons) graduate would not be considered for Nursing MSc as it requires a minimum 2:2 degree in Nursing.
A Management and Leadership BA (Hons) graduate could not be considered for Advanced Mechanical Engineering MSc. They would, however, be considered for the Engineering Management MSc.

So, if you find the prospect of finding a graduate job daunting right now or aren’t ready to end your studies yet, you could consider postgraduate study with us. If you would like to go ahead with receiving a formal offer, complete the form and our admissions team will be in touch to help secure your place.

*Guaranteed postgraduate study offer includes UK, EU and international Coventry University students. Please note, offers to EU and international students will be subject to meeting any additional course specific requirements (including any associated costs) and obtaining the necessary immigration permissions to study in the UK, e.g. IELTS, CAS and any visa requirements.
