1.1 Requirements to Pursue a Philosophy Degree

PhilosophyThe study of fundamental questions about existence, knowledge, and ethics. courses at universities begin at undergraduate bachelor’s level. Although the entry requirements for undergraduate Philosophy degrees vary depending on the specific university, we will look at the general entry requirements in this section.

Essential A-Level/IB Subjects

For most UK universities, the entry requirements for undergraduate Philosophy degrees do not typically include a qualification in A-Level Philosophy. This is because most universities recognise that A-Level Philosophy is not widely offered by colleges and sixth-form institutions, so they accept a wide range of A-Level subjects. Most universities design their undergraduate Philosophy courses to be accessible to beginners who have not studied A-Level Philosophy.
