Applicant profile

You need to be keen, dedicated and show evidence of your desire to become a journalist.

We’ll expect candidates to have engaged in journalism, for example, through a work placement, school magazine or newspaper.

Good English and communication skills are vital. You may also be invited to an interview and asked to undertake a journalism test.

We positively welcome applications from students who may not meet the stated entry criteria but who can demonstrate their ability to successfully pursue a programme of study in higher education. Students who do not have formal entry qualifications are required to sit a written assessment which is designed for this purpose. Support in preparing for the written assessment is available from the University. Please contact Seamus Simpson the Director of Admissions for further information.
