Undergraduate

Colombian students can directly join the first year of undergraduate degree programmes at the University of Hull.

Depending on the undergraduate course points requirement you need to have a specific level of qualification.

Undergraduate programmes that need up to 112 UCAS points with no Level 3 subject-specific requirements:

You must complete the Bachiller/Bachillerato Acacdemico, plus a minimum of 300 overall points in the ICFES (Saber 11) examination.

Undergraduate programmes that need over 112 UCAS points with no Level 3 subject-specific requirements:

You must complete the Bachiller/Bachillerato Academico, plus a minimum of 330 overall points in the ICFES (Saber 11) examination.

Programmes that have a Level 3 subject-specific requirement, you need to have completed a recognised Foundation Year.

You can apply to our undergraduate programmes, if you have successfully completed one year of a Colombian University Bachelor Degree.

Applications will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. If you would like to join an undergraduate programme in the second or final year, this will be dependent on your completed equivalent prior study.

You can visit our individual programme webpages for information on the required UCAS points and any Level 3 subject-specific requirements. If you are unsure or have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with us via global@hull.ac.uk.
