How does this university use SAT scores?
Cardiff Metropolitan's USA Year 1 guidance offers a High School Diploma GPA 2.4/70% route with SAT 1050 or another listed qualification. A separate GPA 3.0/80% route does not state a general SAT requirement, but courses with specified A-level subjects require additional subject evidence.
SAT reference and qualification combination
| Route type | SAT reference | Qualification context |
|---|---|---|
| USA Year 1: lower-GPA SAT combination | SAT 1050+ | High School Diploma grade C / GPA 2.4 / 70% |
| USA Year 1: higher-GPA route | No general SAT condition stated | High School Diploma grade B / GPA 3.0 / 80%; subject evidence where required |
How to use this route
SAT is one alternative alongside the lower-GPA High School Diploma route. The higher-GPA route is separate. For courses requiring a specific A-level subject, the university lists additional evidence such as an AP or IB examination, Honors/AP class or community-college credit. Check the selected course rather than treating GPA 2.4 plus SAT as sufficient for every degree.
