Overview

Finance and Mathematics is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Finance is assessed through coursework and group work more than examinations, and most departments run a consultancy or company project in the final stage.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £19,500 a year.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
