Mathematics and Data Science (3 Years)

Richmond American University London

Richmond is the only UK university with US-based degree programmes, which typically take four years to complete. However, students can now finish in three years using A Levels or equivalent qualifications to fast-track their degree. For example, UK A Levels grades BBC-BBB and above (depending on your programme of interest) count as credits for the first year. Upon graduation students will receive a UK and US degree award.
