Frequently Asked Questions
Selection is based on academic merit, using GCSE or National 5 performance. Pupils must be predicted to achieve at least AAA at A level or AAAAB/AAAAA in Scottish Highers (or equivalent). Where Pupils from the Scottish system can offer Advanced Highers we would expect AA (for two subjects) or AAB (for three subjects). Places are generally limited to two per school/college, although larger establishments may be offered more places.
We want to make it as easy as possible for you to visit St John’s and see for yourself what we are able to offer to our undergraduate students. All events and resources are free to qualifying pupils, but students will need to pay for their travel to St Johns College in Oxford.
