Study Abroad
International university pathways for private candidates — qualifications, transcripts and verification for overseas applications.
Applying to universities overseas
Many international universities — in the US, Canada, Australia, Europe and beyond — accept UK A Level and GCSE qualifications as entry requirements. As a JCQ-approved examination centre, Ark Exam Centre can provide the documentation and verification that overseas institutions require.
