Nigeria

RGU has firm links with Nigeria and as such an active Nigerian student population both on campus and in our Alumni.  Our industry led courses give students the opportunity to be ready to enter their chosen profession with ease.

Entry Requirements

Please note that this information is intended as a guideline and allows you to broadly compare your qualifications to the British qualifications specified on the course pages of this website. Some courses may require a higher standard of English than stated in this page. Applications are considered on an individual basis and other qualifications or work experience may be taken into consideration.

Partnerships

Partnerships allow international students to start a degree with RGU from an equivalent entry point.

If your course is not listed, but your institution is a partner of Robert Gordon University, you may still be entitled to the scheme. Please contact admissions@rgu.ac.uk

Terms and conditions

• Students entering year 2 of an undergraduate degree with RGU are entitled to apply for a paid working placement in their 3rd year of study (if their course of interest offers this option) this allows students to pay minimal fees for their 3rd year, and gain paid work experience before returning for their 4th and final year.  This placement is closely monitored by the course tutor and advice on placements can be provided by our careers and placement team.
• Students who enter 3rd year of an undergraduate degree with RGU will attend the academic (taught) 3rd year option, but they will have the option to leave at the end of the 3rd year with a general degree in just one year.  Students who choose to complete the 3rd and 4th year will leave the university with an honours degree.   Students intending to study only up to the 3rd year should state this at the point of application as it will affect their visa.
• Students who enter 4th year of an undergraduate degree with RGU will also attend an academic taught year, and will have only one opportunity to re-sit assessments.  Please refer to the academic regulations for full details.
