Where your diploma can take you
See where you could start with us, what your qualifications add up to in UCAS points, and which universities you could progress to. Then let our admissions team map out your route with a free, personal progression check.
Step 1 of 3
Can I study with Ravenscroft College?
Typical entry requirements
- Level 3. Typically open to learners aged 18 or over with a standard of education equivalent to GCSE or above.
- Level 4. Typically requires a full Level 3 qualification, such as A Levels or an equivalent Diploma, or relevant work experience.
A general guide, not an admissions decision. Every application is assessed individually, including English language where English is not your first language.
Step 2 of 3
UCAS Tariff points from our courses
Ravenscroft courses
Tariff values from the UCAS Tariff tables, matched on Ofqual qualification number.
Points are a guide, not an offer. Universities set their own entry requirements and are not obliged to accept a qualification or its Tariff value. Many courses ask for grades rather than points.

Step 3 of 3
Universities you could progress to
Our awarding partner, OTHM, publishes progression arrangements with universities, each confirmed by the university concerned. These routes do not rely on UCAS Tariff points, and they do not guarantee an offer: universities assess each applicant individually.

Progression arrangements belong to the awarding organisation, not to Ravenscroft College, and universities add and remove them without notice. We cannot guarantee a place at any university: each applicant is assessed individually by the university, including English language. We check the current list with you as part of your free progression check. Last checked 19 August 2026.
