Equivalent qualifications for postgraduate study

Your bachelors degree with honours must be from the University of Malta and in a subject specified under 'Qualifications' (if any).

If the programme requires a first class honours degree80%-100% 
UK degree percentages  

If a programme requires you to achieve a specific UK percentage, use these ranges to help determine what you need in the qualification you studied.

  • A first class ranges from 70% to 100%.
  • A 2:1 ranges from 60% to 69%.

For example, if a programme asks for at least 65%, this would be halfway between the equivalent of a 2:1 and first class in the qualification you studied.

PhD entry

If you’re applying to a PhD or professional doctorate programme, you may also need a masters degree. If you need a masters, this will be specified in the 'Qualifications' section.
