Screenwriting

Entry requirements

You should have the equivalent of a British Honours degree (2:1 minimum) in a relevant subject. If you do not have any formal academic qualifications but do have experience in the industry and previous training in a relevant area, we will consider your application on an individual basis. We are very open to those who show relevant experience useful to the degree.

We are happy to consider equivalent qualifications from anywhere in the world.

If English is not your first language an IELTS score of 6.0 or equivalent when you start the course is essential.

An interview is required and you will also need a high quality portfolio according to the course guidelines as part of your application.

We welcome applications from mature students with non-standard qualifications and recognise all other equivalent and international qualifications.
