*The year of entry refers to the academic year in which the course begins rather than the calendar year. E.g. a course with a March 2025 start date will be shown as 'March 2024/25 Entry' because the academic year starts in September making 2024/25 the relevant academic year. Similarly, a course with a January 2025 start date will have 'January 2024/25 Entry' because 2024/25 is the academic year of entry for that course.
