university courses

anyone know any universities that will accept a student for biological sciences without having done chemistry for A levels?

Imperial. And probably lots of others.

I think most only ask for Biology.

thank you for your help 😀
however, I checked on imperial's website and under the entry requirement section it says the chemistry, physics of mathematics is required. unfortunately I only take biology as a science and am not sure if psychology is considered a science. but thanks for the help again

Not according to Imperial; others might take a different view. You'll have to do some digging! 😀

Nearly all universities will accept you without Chemistry but a 2nd science is required and that will differ dependant on the university. Most will accept Psychology as a 2nd science but you will need to check the individual university's requirements. Most are not as strict as Imperial. These are Bristol's science subjects
Science-related subjects include Biology, Chemistry, Computer Science, Economics, Electronics, Environmental Sciences, Geography, Geology, Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Psychology and Statistics

oh, that is very helpful! thank you. I will do the research

This is Lancaster's list of Science subjects
A level grade AB in two sciences from the following; Biology, Chemistry, Computing, Environmental Science, Geography, Geology, Human Biology, Mathematics, Physics or Psychology.

this is very helpful, I can finally narrow down my course choices as I now know that chemistry is not required to study the course I want in many universities.

Hi, adeennnnn,

I hope you are well,

You may want to create a shortlist of universities which interests you. You could use a tool like UCAS Search to help collate which universities offer BSc(Hons) Biological Science. Then make sure to confirm the entry requirements on the university’s webpage.

To help you get started, the University of Huddersfield offers BSc(Hons) Biological Science. The course requires ‘BBC’ at A Level, with a B in one relevant science subject (including Biology). Once you have got an idea which universities you are interested in, many are hosting virtual open days and can be contacted via email.

If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

All the best with your studies,

Best Wishes,

Sam Townsend | Bsc(Hons) Geography Student at The University Of Huddersfield
