Students from United States

Swansea University is accepting a wider range of tests for UG applicants from USA 2021/22 entry.

• We will offer flexibility while considering individual applications. If there may be some gaps in transcripts, we will consider Honours/College level classes in place of ACT/SAT/AP exams.
  
  - We will accept one Honours/College level class, with grade B or above, in place of one SAT/ACT/AP subject test.
  - We will increase this to two classes in place of two tests where an applicant has had difficulty in accessing standardised tests.
  - Please note that where a subject specific test result is needed to meet the academic requirements, it must be SAT/ACT/AP test (for example Maths is required for Engineering programmes)
  
  
• We will accept 2 completed semesters of Community College classes as direct entry to year one with an overall GPA of 2.6/4 or C grade average, in place of standardised tests. Please note that where a subject specific test result is needed to meet the academic requirements, it must be SAT/ACT/AP test (for example Maths is required for Engineering programmes)
  
  
• Students are encouraged to submit test scores if you have them, but additional references, online classes, independent research, and experience can all be considered in support of the application.
