How is my undergraduate degree calculated? Our Degree Classification tool is designed to help you understand what award you might be able to achieve but excludes Integrated Masters awards. It is intended for use with undergraduate bachelor’s awards; however, it would not be suitable to calculate the classifications for an undergraduate award with a placement year or an integrated master's award.

The University normally classifies all bachelor’s degrees (with honours), based on the following bands:

• 70%+ - 1st Class
• 60 – less than 70% - 2nd Class (Upper Division) 2:1
• 50 – less than 60% - 2nd Class (Lower Division) 2:2
• 40 – less than 50% - 3rd Class

Honours degrees (without a placement year) are calculated by using one of the following methods (you will be awarded the best outcome):

• Method 1: the weighted mean average of the best 100 credits from Level 5 and 6 (Level 5 marks are worth 30% and the Level 6 marks 70% of your degree classification)

OR

• Method 2: the average from 120 credits from Level 6 only.
