School references
The potential variety in the range and breadth of qualifications presented by applicants, referred to above, makes a school reference a key aspect in informing our admissions staff of students' abilities and the context in which they have studied. The University of Nottingham asks staff writing references to confirm in the reference any factors, if known, that might have affected the applicant’s achievement. These factors can relate to the student’s personal circumstances and background or to the educational context.
What are we looking for?
Consideration will be given as to whether applicants will be able to fulfill the objectives of the programme of study and achieve the standards required.
A range of factors additional to, and in some cases instead of, formal examination results is considered in the selection process. These can include:
- The personal statement and reference.
- Additional evidence of achievement, motivation and potential as gathered through interview or assessment of written materials.
- Other factors as appropriate to the discipline, such as employment or volunteer work in relevant fields and sustained critical engagement with relevant issues.
