We have a worldwide reputation for ground-breaking teaching and research by leading academics. More than 75% of our graduates receive a First or 2:1 and we're first in the Russell Group for graduate employability. With its unique attractions, famously warm welcomes, and global reputation for sport, music, architecture and culture for you to explore, there's nowhere quite like Liverpool.
Living in Liverpool is less expensive than other UK cities which lets me have a better quality of life while spending less. Being here has taught me how to manage budgets, be independent and organised and enjoy the opportunity of being in one of the best cities and universities in the UK.
Entry requirements: which qualifications do you need?
Pathway programmes for applicants from Peru
Many countries have a different education system to that of the UK, so you may need further preparation before you can start university here. Pathway programmes provide an entry route for international students whose qualifications do not meet our entry requirements.
After successfully completing your Foundation Certificate or pre-Master’s programme, you're guaranteed a place on your chosen course. Pathway programmes are offered through the University of Liverpool International College.
