Dominican Republic

Undergraduate entry

For entry onto the first year of our 3 or 4 year undergraduate / Bachelor degree programmes we ask for a school leaving qualification which is equivalent to the British school leaving qualification, (A-levels / International Baccalaureate). 

Undergraduate Transfer

It is possible to transfer into the 2nd year of an undergraduate degree programme if the university studies undertaken to date in another country or in another university in the UK correspond by level and content to the 1st year of a programme at Bangor University. Ir order to assess an application for transfer, students are required to provide an offical certified transcript detailing the study undertaken to date with their application.

Postgraduate Entry

Entry onto our postgraduate Masters' courses requires an undergraduate/bachelor degree with a minimum of Grade C or 70-79% aggregate or Bueno/Good degree classification AND IELTS 6.0 (no element below 5.5). Some courses may require higher grades in your degree and a higher IELTS score.  
 

PhD

Requires a taught postgraduate degree as well as a bachelor degree from a recognised institution.

Mature students

Students may be eligible for entry under the mature student regulations. This regulation does not require a bachelor degree. The applicants must however have obtained relevant work experience or held a position of responsibility relevant to the proposed course of study for a minimum period of 2 years prior to commencing the course. This rule does NOT apply for applicants for PhD studies, and entrants MUST have a taught postgraduate degree.

English Language Requirements

An IELTS score of 6.0 (no element below 5.5) or equivalent is normally required (some courses may require a higher score, e.g. 6.5 (6.0)). We may consider to waive the English Language Requirements if you provide alternative evidence of your English Language ability, e.g. Secondary School Transcripts, English medium Bachelor degree and transcripts.
