All applications must be made through the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS). The UCAS code name and number for this University is BRISL B78.
Please note that we do not generally require any standardized tests, but students for Law will need to take the LNAT, but Medicine applicants are not required to take the UKCAT test or the BMAT.
Students who are already at University in Canada but who are interested in spending one or two credit-bearing semesters as an undergraduate at Bristol should consult our Study Abroad pages for more details. Study Abroad applications do not go through UCAS.
Please note that competition for places at Bristol is very strong, so the achievement of the qualifications listed above does not guarantee that an offer will be made. We aim to get you a response as quickly as possible to help you plan your studies.
You can apply online for all our postgraduate programmes.
The standard requirement for entry to a taught masters programme at Bristol is an undergraduate (Bachelor) degree that is equivalent to a UK Upper Second Class degree (also known as a 2:1).
Students from Canada holding a Bachelors degree with a GPA of 3.0, mid B grades or a numeric grade of 77+ will be considered equivalent to a 2:1 degree.
Applicants who hold a Masters degree from Canada or the United Kingdom will be considered for admission to PhD study. A research proposal is required. To investigate research opportunities in our faculties please visit the postgraduate prospectus.
An International Office Scholarship is available for new international students.
