As you can see from the table, you will not score any points for qualifications deemed to fall in the following groups:
- one or more passes at United Kingdom GCE A level;
- a qualification from the United Kingdom that is the same as or above a GCE A level, but below degree level;
- a qualification from outside the United Kingdom where you have the supporting evidence that is the same as or above a GCE A level, but below degree level.
Your qualification must be verified by the National Academic Recognition Information Centre for the United Kingdom (UK NARIC). Please note you can only claim points for one type of qualification.
If you cannot find your professional or vocational qualification on the points-based calculator, you may still want to claim points, so you should get written confirmation from the appropriate United Kingdom professional body that the qualification is the same as the United Kingdom qualification levels.
