Qualification
- Students will need to have the equivalent of GCE A/AS Level 240 UCAS points, as outlined by LSBF Malta on a country-by-country basis, plus English at B2 level (IELTS 5.5 with 5.5 in all components). Students with level 3 International qualifications can be accepted directly into the first year, since we cannot calculate their UCAS points
- Students can be granted access directly to the third year of the programme if they hold qualifications equivalent to Level 5. This can be HND (Higher National Diploma) and/or similar. The qualifications will have to be in a related subject, and the exemptions will be mapped and confirmed by the Admissions and Academic Board. Each case will be assessed individually.
Application Documents
- The requirements for acceptance based on the mature route are work experience of a minimum of two years. The student will need to provide two letters of reference and CV.
- If a student has strong qualifications but lacks an official English test, is not from a majority English-speaking country or has not completed an approved English qualification, they may be evaluated by the Academic Board for an exemption from providing proof of English proficiency based on their work experience in an English-speaking professional setting or any other means of obtaining a sufficient level of English language. This is to be done through an interview with the board, where the applicant is given an opportunity to demonstrate the level of English and explain their professional and personal journey.

- High school completed in English.
- Bachelor’s degree completed in English
