University of the West of Scotland

Computing Science BSc (Hons)

Computer Science & Computing

Partial

ACT 24+

current (no cycle year confirmed)

UWS's own USA country page states, for Year 1 entry alongside a 2.7 GPA High School Diploma: an ACT composite of 24+ (no individual section below 24) -- current and usable, so published. The page's only SAT-side options are both dead ends: a pre-spring-2016 combined score of 1500 (a discontinued scoring scale) or, for applicants after March 2016, 'two SAT II subject tests with 550-600 in each' -- SAT Subject Tests were discontinued by the College Board in January 2021 and are no longer takeable, so this route can't actually be satisfied by a current applicant. No direct SAT figure is published, given both offered SAT paths are non-current, same stale-test-reference red flag as the Keele/Portsmouth/Kingston findings -- only the direct ACT figure is published. This list's twelfth Scottish institution. University-wide standard, not confirmed specific to Computing Science.
