Undergraduate
To apply for our undergraduate courses you'll need good grades in your 高中毕业证书 Senior High School Graduation Examination and the 高考 Chinese University Entrance Examination (Gaokao) for admission to year 1.
Applicants who have completed the 专科毕业证书 Graduation Certificate - Specialist/Sub-degree (Zuanke) level (also known as the 大专 Dazhuan) will be considered for final year (top-up) entry. We generally require an overall 70% grade or above but this will vary depending on the institution. Contact us for more information: admissions@plymouth.ac.uk
